    There is more info on the animated boot screen here with a nice large screenshot.

    There is also a warning on the site for people planning on trying this out:

    Before you try this, have a boot floppy ready. If something doesn't go as planned, you could RENDER YOUR SYSTEM UNBOOTABLE. You have been warned.
