But when we're booting a kernel (Linux) we just say that. Shouldn't we be consistent and say "bootmgr" and "ntldr" too? Btw, to make this even more interesting, there's also freeldr, which can be used to boot either Windows NT/2000/XP or ReactOS. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us.
