Tripple Boot

Is it possible to tripple boot with FreeBSD?
I have a dual boot system Linux and Windows. Is it possible to have FreeBSD as a third OS on a tripple boot system? I have three partitions. If this is possible please explain how. I don't want to remove Linux or Windows to try out FreeBSD. As you can tell from my signature I prefer Linux over Windows but there are times that I still need to use Windows.

Thanx for any and all help,

Yes. Install FreeBSD to the empty partition with no boot loader, and then add it to LILO or GRUB. If you want to have any more partitions for any reason, you'll need to use extended partitions, as a disk can only have 4 primary partitions.
