Question USB Multiboot

I am trying to boot accross multiple partitions using syslinux. I relize I could use grub, but given the images I have to work with syslinux just seemed to be a better option.
Here is how my drive is set up:
Code:
sdb1 = RHEL deployment image
sdb5 = PXE boot disk fro XP
sdb6 = PXE boot disk for Windows 7
sdb8 = Cloanzilla
I have already tried these links.
Code:
kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt
linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/making-syslinux-boot-a-different-partition-also-with-syslinux-708079/
syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Comboot/chain.c32
saxamit.blogspot.com/2008/09/using-syslinux-to-boot-across-partition.html
How can I get this to all boot?
The reason I have put everything on different partitions is there are similar directory names, but different files in each directory. There is a lot that has been hard coded that I can not modify. I have tried to have all this on one partition but it failed miserably. If I only have RHEL and PXE for XP on the one partition it worked, but once I added PXE for Win7 it broke it all.
