BootMagic comes with PartitionMagic, which you will need anyway.
BootMagic is IMO very ugly-looking, but appears to be able to boot anywhere
on any disk. It is only the BIOS which has a 1024 cylinder bootable limit.
This BIOS would then only ever boot BootMagic, which PowerQuest installs below
1024 (actually in the MBR).
