+things that put me off:
+
+  (1) It appears to need to occupy a FAT32 (or similar)
+partition. (As an extension to what goes in the MBR?)
+
+  (2) One component in the download package is SBM - another Boot
+Manager (which I had also tried separately but could not get to execute
+on a floppy, for trial purposes). Why is that there?
+  It also encourages one to install the XOSL partition manager.
+
+   (3) Although I signed up for the IOSL forum, it seems I would have to
+then register with Yahoo to do anything  useful (e.g. ask questions).
+
+All I wanted to do is install XSOL in the MBR and try it, but the doc
+keeps talking about 'DOS', and 'FAT32', and LILO!  (I use GRUB as
+bootloader), so I abandoned it in favour of Extipl - though GAG has a
+nice user interface.
