When some say that you shouldn't put multiple system files "on the same hard disk," they actually mean that you shouldn't put multiple system files *in the same logical volume*. When other people say there's no problem (as above), they actually mean that there's no problem putting multiple systems on *different partitions* of the same hard disk. Everybody get that?
