Unfortunately it doesn't load custom kernels and such, but you can use it as your master boot menu, and install GRUB on a secondary partition and have System Commander boot GRUB!

System Commander is a boot menu program. It was originally written by V-Communications, and is now owned by Avanquest Software. It has evolved into a quite complex boot menu that does auto-partitioning and a few other nifty tricks.

It's features:

  • It can boot anything from BeOS, FreeBSD, and Windows '98 to the latest GNU/Linux systems.
  • It supports heaps of various operating systems and file systems.
  • It's packaged with Partition Commander, a complex partition tool.
  • It allows you to assign custom graphics to each operating system in the menu.
