tested but unable to test completely (boot to DOS commandprompt)
now floppy is reported instead of harddrive, but I cannot boot the 
image. Don't know if I have to blame BIOS for that, or disk image 
bootsector and/or kernel. Tried FreeDOS and Win98.

Is there a default/reference configuration that works?
-BIOS (preferable the one of an emulator like Bochs or QEMU)
-payload/diskette_image

or is the 'boot memdisk image succesfully as B:' merely a theoretical 
possibility?
I don't mind either possibility, as people (including me) will usually 
boot from A: anyway, but some people wanted Memdisk as B:

The specific message I get is:

"Int 13 08: Failure, assuming this is the only drive"

after that FreeDOS bootsector boots but hangs, probably expects A:..

so after all: bug fixed, yet unable to test it's working completely for 100%
