Dual boot is possible, all you have to do is install the two OSes on different partitions and have a way of choosing where to boot from. That might be as simple as going into the early startup menu and selecting the disk.
Someone could write a small program that would let you choose e.g. between OS 3, OS 4 and MorphOS. I don't see any trouble with that.

Stephen_Robinson started in: is dual OS4/3.* booting possible, easy to do etc?
Since it's classic Amiga hardware, with original Kickstart chips, I'd say yes. Just set up two bootable partitions with HD toolbox. Give one a higher priority than the other. Install your preferred OS on that one, and install your secondary OS on the other. When booting up, hold down both mouse buttons to access the Kickstart's early startup menu. From there, you can select which bootable partition to actually boot from. Do this when wanting to boot from the partition with lower boot priority.
Since that has worked for years on systems without OS4, it should continue to do so now.
[Edit] Dang, I've beem scooped; Rogue beat me to the question. Just goes to show that I need to read the whole thread before replying.
