Default Triple Boot?

Got my 120Gb disk which has got a bit full so a new 300GB is on its way to add in

I would quite like to have a clean install of XP on this new disk as well as a Linux partition.

So is it possible to keep my original disk to boot into when I want and also config the 2nd disk into another two bootable partitions? Essentially have a triple boot option?

I'd say you just change the first boot device in the bios each time you want to switch between the 2 drives.
