I've done make buildworld/installworld of both -current and -stable
onto one disk in the 3.x/4.0-current time frame.  It took a lot of
tweaking, but I was able to boot off either one.  I think that
booteasy didn't boot the second partition properly and I had to play
loader games.  Sadly, the disk that had this on it one day started
thumping, turning it into a rather large paperweight...
