From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Not an answer to your question, but have you checked out Bedrock Linux as opposed to installing multiple distros? Or maybe using virtual machines?
I have HEARD of Bedrock but never really read about it. I will give it a check out now. Not too interested in VM's ATM
Bedrock linux is not a vm. It is a meta distro means it runs on top of your distros kernel.
Oh I wasn't inferring Bedrock was VM, was just saying I dont want to explore the VM route... I tried to before and messed things up lol though I will learn about it down the road! I'll read up on Bedrock though
