Hi,
I noticed in newer versions of Qemu (Debian Jessie) a regression causing DISPLAY.SYS from MS-DOS 6.22 to hang the system as soon as loaded.
now that you sent a pull request for a SeaBIOS update, I tried what would happen with this one. Sadly, while it does fix my hanging Win 7 boot, DOS still hangs while loading display.sys.
[ This is http://www.kraxel.org/cgit/qemu/tag/?id=pull-roms-1 with the 1.7.4 update ]
Digged out my prehistoric msdos floppy images. Can confirm the hang. Using default vga (i.e. cirrus).
I can't reproduce the hang with the dosidle program linked by Sebastian. (I ran the program on freedos and on an msdos floppy and both times it said it install succesfully.) Can someone walk through the steps needed to reproduce the problem?
Also, logs from "-chardev stdio,id=seabios -device isa-debugcon,iobase=0x402,chardev=seabios" would be useful.
