- Other Boot Loaders:
-
Extended-IPL
Can be installed from FreeBSD, Linux or DOS, and can boot
*BSD or Linux from the end (greater than 8 Gb) of a single hard drive or
from a second or later hard drive.
-
GAG
Can boot OSs installed in primary and extended partitions
on any available hard disk. Supports and can be installed from nearly all
OSs, e.g. OS/2, Windows, Linux DOS, *BSD, SCO, etc.
-
nuni
Designed to avoid BIO limitations by not using the BIOS,
i.e. can be used to boot from any place on a hard drive up to 137 Gb.
Works with the ext2 filesystem and IDE drives.
- OSL2000
Uses something called UltraIO to "work with almost all x86
PCs, operating systems and partition types." The installation requirements
are a PC clone, a hard disk and a single FAT partition.
- Smart Boot
Manager
"Absolutely OS independent."
-
SYSLINUX
A boot loader that operates off an MS-DOS/Windows FAT
filesystem, i.e. it can (only) boot Linux from a FAT filesystem.
-
Two
Kernel Monte
A kernel module that allows Linux to boot another kernel
image into RAM and restart the machine from that kernel.
- UNILOAD
Officially supoprts DOS, FreeBSD and Linux.
- XOSL
Supports BeOS, MS-DOS, FreeDOS, Linux (with LILO), Solaris,
VxWorks 5.x, Windows 95/98/ME, Windows NT/2000 and "others." This also has
many features not found in other freely available boot manager.

- IMAP
"MAP stands for Internet Message Access Protocol. It is a
method of accessing electronic mail or bulletin board messages that are
kept on a (possibly shared) mail server. In other words, it permits a
"client" email program to access remote message stores as if they were
local. For example, email stored on an IMAP server can be manipulated from
a desktop computer at home, a workstation at the office, and a notebook
computer while traveling, without the need to transfer messages or files
back and forth between these compuuters." -
What is IMAP?
- LDAP
"Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an
open-standard protocol for accessing X.500 directory services. The
protocol runs over Internet transport protocols, such as TCP. LDAP is a
lightweight alternative to the X.500 Directory Access Protocol (DAP) for
use on the Internet. It uses TCP/IP stack verses the overly complex OSI
stack. It also has other simplications, such as the representing most
attribute values and many protocol items as textual strings, that are
designed to make clients easier to implement." -
