- Boot sector Assembly code - A brief explanation of the objective of a boot sector, followed by the source for an example bootsector. "Here's a bootsector from PolyOS that simply switches to protected mode, after checking that you have a 386+ computer. Actually, it even loads in the PolyFS superblock and checks if it's valid, but that's about it. Soon it'll load in the kernel and jump to it. The bootesctor was written with Nasm."

- OS Boot Select (OS-BS) - Boot Manager - OS Boot Select (os-bs) is a replacement of the ordinary master boot program for "PC"-compatible computers. It provides a customizable boot menu with a timeout and the abiltity to automatically set the active partition before booting. This avoids boot problems with some UNIX systems. Unlike the OS/2 boot manager's it only requires the 512 byte of the master boot sector (sector 0) and some additional sectors which can be anywhere on the disk but no separate 1MB partition.
