Wrong again.  boot0 is in the MBR, boot1 and boot2 are the bootstrap; 
all by Robert.  The loader, OTOH, uses Robert's BTX code, Ficl, and a 
lot of code derived by me from the NetBSD standalone loader.

The "BTX loader" doesn't have a prompt at all.  The kernel loader has a 
prompt, and the prompt is not written in Forth (yet).
