    <para>
      <command>&dhprogram;</command> is used to set EMILE first level boot block info.
    </para>
    <para>EMILE first level is written into the boot block by EMILE.
    When computer starts it loads in memory this boot block and executes it.
    The aim of the first level is to load the second level. To be able to load
    the second level, first level must be configured with information allowing
    it to know where is located the second level. <command>&dhprogram;</command>
    is the command allowing to set this information.</para>
