hand-back-point-upBoot Choices

Choose where to go.

Nitrocid's internal bootloader simulates the boot choices as in GRUB and LILO. These allow you to select any operating system to boot from in the real-world. The simulated bootloader lets you select any kernel environment to run the main entry point.

The bootloader has several controls, including the custom ones that your boot style can make use of.
