Did you not have graphical boot? I think it is turned on by default.

I agree that these menus, with such similar names, might seem confusing
to a beginner. However, could you think of another name combination for
these menus?

I think many would like to hear the opinions of your "test subjects" on
this after you explain to them what those two collection of items are!

I usually answer that DOS is like the cro-magnon and a typical unix
shell like bash is like the modern homo-sapiens.

They might look similar, but the differences are not only in the look,
the intelligence is far... far more developed.
