How does it compare to BootEasy? I prefer osbs to booteasy. osbs135 gives you the ability to label partitions as you want. osbsbeta, I believe, gives you a ascii window for you boot management. It's configurable as to what partition is default (instead of last booted), whether to switch the active partition flag, and amount of time to wait before starting the default boot. -- This sentence is false.
