[syslinux] non-standard boot floppys

[Thomas Fanslau]

I experimented with floppy sizes. Eg. I used FDFORMAT v1.8 to format a Disk

	fdformat a: t82 s21 D10

(I even have a modified version of FDFORMAT that creates only 1 FAT to 
save space, but I'm not using that.)

All the information is written nicely to the Boot-Record

	http://home.freeuk.com/foxy2k/disk/disk3.htm

But SYSLINUX seems to ignore the information. While DOS boots fine from 
these Disks SYSLINUX crashes. I looked a the source code and find no
place where this information is used ...

If it's not used by now, I would like to see support for that. I could 
try to build it in myself, but I'm very closed about who is touching my 
source code, so you may not like it ... But using this could get 
floppy-based solutions another 400K so, if you don't want to do it 
yourself AND consider including my changes, I could try to fit that in.

I saw that you already read in the boot record. Getting "sector per 
track" and "tracks per side" for that should be easy ...
