The new version os-bs 1.35 (with source) is available via ftp from: ftp.prz.tu-berlin.de in /pub/pc/os-bs it's called os-bs135.exe (self-extracting LHA Archiv running under DOS). Happy Christmas, Thomas ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- OS Boot Select (os-bs) is a replacement of the ordinary master boot program. It provides a customizable boot menu with a timeout and the abiltity to automatically set the active partition before booting. This avoids boot problems with some UNIX systems (ISC). Unlike the OS/2 2.0 boot manager it only requires the 512 byte of the master boot sector (sector 0) and no seperate partition. Os-bs comes with a installation program running under DOS, which provides an easy installation and uninstallation (with backup of original master boot sector).
