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."

Syslinux Boot Loader
SYSLINUX is a boot loader for the Linux operating system which operates off MS-DOS floppies. It is intended to simplify first-time installation of Linux. SYSLINUX could in conjunction with the UMSDOS filesystem, completely eliminate the need for distribution of raw diskette images for boot floppies.
