6985a982ad When rebooting the machine jump to 0xf000:fff0 instead of 0xffff:0x0.
This is the same change that was made in rev 1.33 of boot/i386/btx/btx/btx.S

6181b4b9e4 Revert the part of change 107879 that employs the unused bytes after
the disklabel in the 2nd sector for boot code. Even with both UFS1
and UFS2 supported, there's enough bytes left that we don't have to
nibble from the disklabel.
Thus, the entire 2nd sector is now reserved for the disklabel, which
makes the bootcode compatible again with disklabels that have more
than 8 partitions -- such as those created and supported by gpart.

i386: 135 bytes available
amd64: 151 bytes available

736cef795a Try packet mode of INT13 on a hard disk first if not prohibited by
the flag, fall back to the old INT13/AH=02 function if that fails.
This way of operation is less likely to fail with modern BIOSes and
large disks of strange geometries.

cd532d497e Move boot2 BSS zeroing into btx startup code out of boot1. boot1 does not
have clear idea on boot2 BSS size and leaves portion of it not zeroed out.
btxcsu.s is in much better position for this job.

7094a911cb After talking to Bruce Evans and reading more standards specs,
switch to using C99-style comments everywhere in preprocessed
assembler.  The reason is that lines starting with the regexp
'^[[:space:]]#' are treated as preprocessing directives, and
while it seems to work now with GCC, it's not necessarily has
to work.  Use C99 comments `//' for the trailing comments to
save whitespace.

9213e54d95 Many newer CF do not handle having the entire track read from them at
boot time.  Instead, read it a sector at a time.  While this sounds
like a significant slowdown, I've not been able to measure any
signficant difference.

bb0e8ad59a Employ the unused bytes after the disklabel in the second sector. This makes
it possible to make UFS1_ONLY and UFS2_ONLY versions which fit inside the
traditional 16 sectors.

Remove assorted now unneeded hackery.

UFS1_AND_UFS2 still needs another 150 bytes to work, and that is probably
not within our reach, ever.

1270e840d8 Move MEM_USR a page upwards to make space for larger UFS1 boot2.
Load 4 sectors more than we used to.  This is harmless overhead for
the UFS1_ONLY case, but sufficient for boot2(UFS1+2).

364766b6e6 Fix the ILLEGAL fdisk table that is there for supporting "dangerously
dedicated" mode.  This was specifying that there are 256 (illegal!)
heads on the disk.  If bioses store that in a byte, and it gets truncated
to 0, then that almost certainly causes the infamous divide-by-zero
nightmare.

This is also most likely the reason why the Thinkpad T20/A20 series
were locking up when FreeBSD was installed.  This is also the most likely
reason why a boot1 being present causes an IA64 box to lock up at boot.
(removing the "part4" stuff from boot1.s fixes the IA64 boxes and would
most likely have fixed the T20/A20 and some TP600E series thinkpads)

198dfe1ce3 Add in a hack to support IBM "El Torito" CD-ROM booting BIOS's which expect
the first sector of the emulated floppy to contain a valid MS-DOS BPB that
it can modify.  Since boot1 is the first sector of boot.flp, this resulted
in the BIOS overwriting part of boot1: specifically the function used to
read in sectors from the disk.

06878d47d6 Clarify the comments in here a bit. The first sector of boot2 is not just
zeros, it is actually the disklabel itself.  boot2.ldr is simply a
placeholder in the boot2 binary.

cf55ba84f4 Add in support for EDD to support large disks via LBA. This uses a
method similar to that of the loader to avoid potentially breaking older
drives in that we only use EDD if the desired cylinder is > 1023.

5053ee0d6c Clean up all of the 16-bit assembly code in the x86 bootstrap to work
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.

6f74dc01b4 Damn, I thought I had committed this already, but it seems not.
Move the relocated boot1 and arg transfer space from 0x600/0x800 to
0x700/0x900.  In theory this should make no difference, apart from the fact
that Buslogic controllers happen to use a few bytes at 0x600 for some sort
of scratch space for it's int 0x13 hook (!!!), causing the machine to crash
badly when the boot2 code makes it's callbacks into boot1 for disk IO.
