Aight guys I recently got the job of network Assistant at my school, after my classes, the NA wants me to set up a sever for the IS department to house all the programs commenly used, and ghost images for thier standard system. I dug up an extra of thier standard system, did alittle asking around to the teachers of IS on what should be installed. I am setting this system up to be the image im going to grab with ghost.
They want XPPRO/2000Server/and Novell Netware 5 and all the standard networking programs and such. Which we have all of them. But my question is, using 1 40 gig HD, partitioned into 2 20 gig partitions(C:/D what would be the proper sequence to install the OS's? Thats kinda screwing me over here....hehe
Non-Experts w/o novell experiance need not reply.

Recommendation is buy a computer for each OS or you're screwed.
That is not a proper method for support systems. I hate to see they are training you that way.

Once again I'm with Kane on this 110%.
From reading through it sounds like you want a file server to store Ghost images and other installs on. My suggestion would be to get a couple more machines (or even one). One the first, make two partitions on it one for the OS and software, and another to house the served files. Load the first partition up with 2000 Server and your standard software; image it. Load the second up with XP Pro; image it back to the 2000 Server box. Wipe the second PC and reload it with the Novell setup, then image it to back to the 2000 server box.
Otherwise you're going to need a box for each like Kane said.

Well acctually what I think im going to end up doing, is setting up XP Pro/Server on one box image it. THen novell, image it, and they can just load Whatever the F they feel like lol. Bah, I've cramed more information in my head today then i have since I first touched a computers. Learned Active Driectory, Domian setups, Ghost, Intergraphs PSD cad setup <--- ROYAL PAIN IN MY ASS. Tought myself how to set up Novell, configure DNS server, and Tape drive backup software....
