Here's a detailed discussion of the release complete with pictures: http://devinteske.com/new-freebsd-boot-loader-menu Here's the download: http://druidbsd.sourceforge.net/download/loader_menu-1.0.tgz The download is a FreeBSD package. You can execute: fetch [aboveURL] pkg_add loader_menu-1.0.tgz reboot And upon your next boot will use the new loader menu. A feature-complete so= phisticated boot menu designed from the ground up. --=20 Cheers, Devin Teske P.S. This code has been developed since 2006 and has been booted on hundred= s of machines thousands of times by a group of more than two dozen field en= gineers trained to install, trouble-shoot, and maintain FreeBSD. It is only= after this success that we are so happy to release this to the general pub= lic under the BSD license. Should it make its way into the base distributio= n, we would be honored, but that is not a necessity. -> LEGAL DISCLAIMER <- This message contains confidential and proprietary information of the sender, and is intended only for the person(s) to whom it is addressed.
