- Autodetection and support of the BIOS EDD extensions to work around the
1024 cylinder limit on all but really ancient BIOS's.
- To work around some BIOS's which break when EDD is used with older drives,
we only attempt to use EDD if the cylinder is > 1023.
- Since this new code required more space than we had left, expand boot0 to
2 sectors (1024 bytes) in length.
- Add support for boot0 being multiple sectors using predefined constants.
If boot0 needs to be extended in the future, all that is required is
bumping the NUM_SECTORS constant.
- Now that we have more room to work with, add a few more fs type
descriptions while making others more verbose.
with the new binutils. Now that we have a decent assembler, all the old
m4 macros are no longer needed. Instead, straight assembly can be used
since as(1) now understands 16-bit addressing, branches, etc. Also,
several bugs have been fixed in as(1), allowing boot0.s to be further
cleaned up.
