[arch] 2 Linux distros on the same partition

[Jeffrey 'jf' Lim]

oh hey wait, i'm sorry - i just reread that again, and realized that u
were talking about the 2 distros being on the same partition. My
apologies...

Having said that though, u could always split them out into different
partitions, but still mount them the same way ('/', '/arch'). Is there
any good or specific reason for keeping the 2 on the same partition?
