I'm confused
My electronic dictionary says completely otherwise, that "boot" is B.E. and "trunk" is A.E.
Where is the truth?

Yes, you're right, my mistake. Anyway, boot is more common in Australia but there are more British words than American in Australia (when they are different).

And they both mean "багажник (автомобиля)", wright?

Correct.
