[FUG-BR] Boot managers compatíveis c/ FreeBSD

2005-03-29 Por tôpico Alex S. Moura
Talvez seja do interesse dos que recentemente conversaram
sobre gerenciadores de boot recentemente.
Sem querer acalentar polmicas, existem 'boot managers'
alternativos que funcionam muito bem para boot mltiplos S.O.s,
incluindo o FreeBSD, Win e outros. Uso h anos, com sucesso,
o  Masterbooter: http://www.masterbooter.com
Outro bastante usado  o XOSL. O site www.xosl.org parece ter
sumido, mas o Google ta.
[]'s,
Alex

So' para acrescentar mais uma opao na lista, uso o GAG 
(http://gag.sf.net/) a dois anos e nunca tive problemas.

Principais features:
* Allows boot of up to 9 different operating systems.
* It can boot operating systems installed in primary and extended 
partitions on any available hard disk.
* Can be installed from nearly all operating systems.
* GAG doesn't need its own partition. It installs itself in the 
first track of the hard disk, wich is reserved for these kinds of 
programs. It can also be instaled on a floppy disk, without using 
the hard disk.
* It has a timer to boot a default operating system (selectable 
by the user).
* The configuration menu can be protected with a password.
* The program works in graphic mode (needs a VGA or better 
graphic card), and has a lot of icons.
* Hides the primary partitions which allows the user to have 
instaled more than one DOS and/or Windows in the same hard disk.
* Allows a password to be put on each operating system, denying 
access to non-authorized people.
* Allows the boot manager text to be translated to all languages.
* Can exchange disk drives, allowing to boot from the second, 
third... hard disk operating systems such as MS-DOS.
* Has the SafeBoot system, that allows to boot your hard disk 
even if GAG is accidentally overwrited.
* Supports a great variety of keyboards (QWERTY, AZERTY, QWERTZ 
and DVORAK keyboards).
* Fully support for hard disks up to 4 terabytes (4096 gigabytes).
* Full version and free software (distributed under GPL licence, 
with source code)
