+This program is used to create Microsoft compatible boot records.
+It is useful when using Linux to restore a backup of a
+reference Microsoft Windows installation.
+
+Version 2.3.0 added experimental support for NTFS boot record.
+This functionality is mostly useful to identify Windows 7
+NTFS boot records. Writing an NTFS Windows 7 boot record
+will most likely not be of much use.
+(Otherwise excellent for bootable Windows 7 install USB).
