[Mono-list] running two different versions on mono on one box?

[Kornél Pál]

Different versions of Mono or even multiple instances of the same version 
can be installed on different prefixes.

The easiest thing to do is to install multiple Mono versions to different 
locations and execute the mono binary you want to use. It will find it's own 
class library and GAC.
