 +===== Bootloader (MBR) ===== 
 + 
 +Both syslinux and grub are disk-based boot loaders, and perform similar functions. They are the first software loaded from disk to run. syslinux has pretty much taken a more minimalist approach, whereas GRUB was much more extensive. GRUB also supports different filesystems through the use of a secondary loader. 
 + 
 +Ubuntu and its derivatives use both grub and syslinux. GRUB is shown when the ISO image is booted on EFI-capable machine. SYSLINUX is shown when the ISO image is booted on BIOS-only machine. 
 + 
 +Plymouth handles the progress dot animation, regardless of GRUB or SYSLINUX is shown.
