BOOTINST

BOOTINST installs a new master boot program which is loaded into memory with the partition table from the first sector of the first fixed disk of the machine.

Every time the machine is reset, this master boot will display a menu with all operating systems installed on the disk and ask the user to select the system he wants to run.

The new master boot is invisible to partitioning programs like FDISK. Partitions owned by DOS or OS/2, XENIX, UNIX, PC-IX and NOVELL are recognized and DOS and OS/2 on a single (dual boot) partition are handled too.
