SHORT
Allows multiple startup-sequences with selection at boot-up.
DESCRIPTION
A boot manager program that allows you to select a startup-
sequence at boot time using the mouse or keyboard. Also
allows password protection and a timer to load a default
startup if none is selected. Includes a preference editor
for easy modification and startup.
BootMan is useful for users who wish to have different machine
configurations, such as a shell-only startup, a ray-trace startup,
a BBS startup, a full blown startup with cache software, and a
memory conserving startup.
