I have xubuntu installed on a 20gb partition and i was wondering how i would go about installing the other two i have here (gOS and Mandriva). My HDD is like this:

20GB ext3 Xubuntu
7GB ext3 Want to install Mandriva
8GB ext3 Want to install gOS
1.5Gb swap

~Thanks
 
You should (and I say should, not familiar with Mandriva and gOS) be able to just install each sequentially, being sure to choose a manual partition option to make sure you get it installed on the correct partition. I believe *buntu distros will recognize other distros on the same disk and add entries to the bootloader so you can simply select which you wish to boot to when you turn the computer on. If the last distro you install doesn't do that, google dual boot (with whatever distro you installed last) and you should get a run-down of how to set up that particular bootloader for the other distros.
