issue he had with GAG, I was wondering what benefits you would get by<br>
using a third party boot manager such as GAG compared to sticking with<br>
the standard GRUB thats installed with most distros? =A0I&#39;ve found that=
<br>
when I&#39;ve been installing different distros, each one will find other<b=
r>
linux installs and add them to GRUB for me and even if I&#39;ve got<br>
windows installed, it finds that and sets it up correctly.<br>
<br></blockquote><div>All the O.S&#39;s can be booted independently of one =
another so that there is no partition reliance in case of crashes or partit=
ion OS upgrade going horribly wrong. It is easy to set up password protecti=
on for some of your OS&#39;s and keep others open. I have a lot of partitio=
ns where some are used for testing purposes where adding or removing system=
s does not require editing of grub configuration files. I also sometimes do=
 partition re-arranging where the boot loading is unaffected or only minor =
modifications is required for individual partitions. It is also easy to rem=
ove GAG from the=A0 MBR if required.<br>
