How to know wich OS config have been booted from boot.ini

Hi all,

does anyboody know how to obtain the actual "config"? is there any
API?

Or how to know the boot options of a booted system?

i.e. things like if is a safe-boot, vga-mode, baudrate, debug,
debugport...


Regards

Julián

In the registry under System\CurrentControlSet\Control there is a value
"SystemStartOptions" that contains the selected boot information.
