Anyone wishing to test this, can get a bootdisk from bootdisk.com.

Thanks. Can you post your qemu command line and the SeaBIOS output
(-chardev stdio,id=seabios -device
isa-debugcon,iobase=0x402,chardev=seabios) from both a working run and
the non-working run? Also, can you provide the exact text reported by
msdos on success and failure.

That's odd - nothing in this commit impacts the disk code. Maybe a
slightly different memory layout is triggering some other bug.
I have an MSDOS 6.22 floppy image - but I don't see either of these
issues. Can you provide the steps needed to reproduce them?
