Memdisk 2.08 does not appear to be able to boot an XP DOS image (it starts
to boot and then hangs). XP DOS appears to be borrowed from WinME
(v4.90.3000). I was trying to make a multiple boot CD with Bart's method:

but substituting Brads TCP boot disk instead of Barts:

Brad uses XPs DOS as it is smaller than 98s (which Memdisk has no trouble
with). For the time being I will convert Brads disk to 98SE DOS but I will
have to loose some drivers to make room.
