Didn't have much luck with Google, so I'll ask here...

Are there other commands available for use in the BOOT.INI file of Windows
XP, especially the [boot loader] section?

The two commands I'm familiar with are the "timeout" and the "default"
commands. Are there others, such as for setting display colour, etc?
