This collections of scripts checks at each boot if the Master Boot Record, boot loader* and boot files have not been modified. The scripts can be used together with the provided service file for use with systemd or can be used with a SysV style init system.
The user is warned of any changes when logging in in a virtual console or when the DE is started (tested only with XFCE).

* It is assumed the boot loader resides between the MBR and the first partition.
