Can I Install 3 OSes on One Computer?

AI Thread Summary
Installing multiple operating systems on a single computer is possible, but issues can arise during the process. In this case, a user is experiencing significant booting problems after installing FreeBSD alongside Red Hat and Windows 98. The system takes an excessively long time to boot and sometimes hangs during the hardware installation phase, resulting in a black screen. The user suspects that the problem may be related to a non-standard keyboard, as the system boots normally when the keyboard is unplugged, but becomes unresponsive afterward. To resolve USB-related issues, troubleshooting steps may include checking compatibility, updating drivers, or using a different keyboard. For additional guidance, the user is directed to a dual-booting resource.

if i want to nstall 3 oses on one computer, is it posible ?

i have a computer with lredhat and win 98 but after install freebsd, freebsd dowsn't work properly.
It boots but it takes 20 minutes before completing for me to use it
and sometimes while booting, it stops to check "new hardware installation",
then does not go on moving teh status bar and my monitor screen gets completely dark. but teh green light is still on.
and the hard disk is still normaly reading, while teh computer doesn't get back to freebsd anymore.

Thank you duardo, my problem happens to be with keyboard which is not us/international one.
I boot in safemode a nd try to look at how teh system works[verbal], but when it comes to "check new usb install"--I am connecting my new keyboard at teh time too--and it stops until my screen goes black. Of course if I unplug my keyboard, it will boot smoothly but after taht my keyboard goes dead/frozen

Do you know how to fix this kind of usb problem ?
Thank you

Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term. I have an MS 365 subscription and I've noticed on my Word documents the small circle with my initials in it is sometimes different in colour document to document (it's the circle at the top right of the doc, that, when you hover over it it tells you you're signed in; if you click on it you get a bit more info). Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...

I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
