[syslinux] pxelinux/memdisk booting MSDOS floppy image requires local floppy disk

[Andre Dalle]

I found that if I do not have a local floppy installed and enabled on my client,
I will get the error 'Non-system disk' when I try to boot DOS floppy images.

NT or Syslinux floppy images boot fine.

If I enable the floppy in the BIOS, then it boots the DOS floppies just fine.

Is this normal?  Is there a workaround?

There are MS-DOS images, so perhaps this is an MS-DOS limitation.
