Confirmed. Looks like this is a different problem from the one I was
usually seeing (where only PC-DOS would hang). On this machine, every
DOS-based floppy I tried hangs. FreeDOS gives most information, it
hangs after InitDisk, and one of the FreeDOS-based disk test floppy
images also reports "Invalid Opcode at 0003 0001 0202 0000 0002 0001
1000 FEE0 0000 0000 0000":

Also, this only happens when booting off USB. When I booted from CD
with isolinux and memdisk, the floppy images worked just fine.

If an experiment works, something has gone wrong.
