firstly, sorry for the late reaction ... i needed some time off ... but yes 
its deliberately settyped to `text' or left that way. This file is for 
editing indeed and is explicitly run by "*obey" in the !Run file. To run 
the bootloader simply double click on its Application Icon or run the 
!BtNetBSD.!Run file... thats all :)

Hope this helps,
