==================== Smart Boot Manager ======================
The Smart-Boot-Manager can boot operating systems on your
hard drive (Linux,FreeBSD,WinXP,DOS,Win2k,Win9x,OS/2).
It can also boot a bootable CD-ROM.
For it to boot a system there must be a boot sector at the
beginning (superblock) of the partition you want to boot. 
For Linux you would need to have Lilo or Grub installed to
the superblock of the Linux partition you want to boot.
