On qemu, the screen ceases to update.  It doesn't happen on Bochs.
(Interestingly, I can see from the logs that irqs and disk accesses
still work under qemu - it's just that the screen stops updating.)

The "int13_harddisk" message indicates to me that the f-segment was
reset (SeaBIOS thinks the drive has zero sectors).

If BX_RESET_SOFTWARE no longer resets the f-segment, that would make
sense.
