Well i can not think of any way in which autoexec.bat  and config.sys can be
manipulated to load an os .
if you r looking for a graphical menu based bootloader i have recently
downloaded a bootloader called   gag it is an excellent boot loader though it
causes some problems in booting from extended dos partitions . I have put the
file up on my webpage for downloading

ps -- would somebody tell me if it is legal to put up files  under the gpl
lisence for free downloading after  making some changes  without the knowledge 
of the author.
