Installing Apps on Ext HDs with Different OSes

Hi -

What is the process for installing across multiple OSes on Multiple ext HDs attached to one computer?

I have multiple external hard drives with a different Mac OS on each connected to my desktop Mac to emulate the environments that my clients have.  My internal HD is running 10.7.5, and I have a 2TB external HD with Mountain Lion installed.  I'd like to know how to install the Adobe apps in each environment.  Since I can never run more than one instance of OS at a time, I cannot be in violation of the EULA, ergo I believe I should be able to install the Adobe software on any of these ext HDs with a single license.

Thanks.

    You can install a million times until you bleed from your ears, but you can only ever activate 2 installs with a single license. Feel free to activate and deactivate as you need.

    Howdy Howdy -

    I figured as much, but the Adobe App Mgr appears to only ever want to to install  to the boot disk - hey, that's it!  I'll have to install the apps by booting from the target disk, then running the App Mgr.

    Thanks, Mylenium.  I appreciate your help.  I'll post back with the results.

    Best,
