Dual, Triple, or more Booting w/ Solaris Only

Hi Everyone,

   Just a quick and perhaps obvious/simple question: Would it be
possible to install several installations of Solaris on different
partitions and make them all bootable?
   The goal is having a machine where a client can turn on the machine,
and at the OK prompt (assuming auto-boot? False), type: `boot michael`
or `boot john` etc. (which maps to slice 0, slice 1, etc), giving
everyone an independent version of the OS.
   I would assume if this is possible you would just install over and
over to each slice, while preserving previous installs and then setting
up nvalias's.

Think it's do-able?

Thanks,
Michael
