The obvious solution is to use qemu to run several versions, or several USB sticks with enough environment to build and run ports. Both solutions don't look perfect, as qemu will be kinda slow, and USB sticks will require lots of reboots that is not to convenient. What would you recommend? -- Cheers~ PGP key fingerprint: 07B3 2177 3E27 BF41 DC65 CC95 BDA8 88F1 E9F9 CEEF You can retrieve my public key at pgp.mit.edu.
