I mean that your original post seemed obscure and annoying because you did not explain why you wanted to know. Which implied that I should already know. An explanation along with the question would have been more courteous and useful. Anyway, the Axiom Wiki only runs the AXIOMsys so apparently this means that 'boottran::boot' is only defined in bootsys. In the mean time I still don't know what )lisp (boot "src/interp/i-output2.boot") does in AXIOMsys (presumably the same thing?).
