Well, my utility should...
They are two way to the multi-booting issue in bootkit:

1- using mbr with ATL key (or CTRL to record the choise). You select
   the partition to activate,

2- using the helper and its configuration file 'boot.conf' 
   (lilo.conf syntax). But the helper is too buggy now and can't be
   used.

BTW, Javier & Neil, linux-8086@vger.kernel.org didn't get bootkit
sources because the mail was larger than 100k. Can you put it on net ?

Thanks,
