BootSpool is a utility by David Pitt that you have installed in your boot
sequence. The BootSpool file is left open if an error occurs. There
should be a 'BootSpoolRd' BASIC program in !Boot.Choices.Boot.Tasks that
closes the file and reports the errors.

It is just reflecting the errors, not causing them.
