How could a system be designed to allow a choice of os to boot from...?
Consider a system that would like to run both Windows 7 and two different distributions of Linux (e.g., Ubuntu, and Gentoo). Each operating system will be stored on disk. During system boot-up, a special program (boot manager) will determine which operating system to boot into. So, rather than booting to an operating system, the boot manager will first run during system startup. The boot manager is responsible for determining which system to boot into. Often, boot managers provide the user with a selection of systems to boot into. Example boot manager is Grub, LILO which come from Linux environment.
