I know an OS will typically use the BIOS during boot, but does a guest OS under Plex86 really use BIOS disk I/O? If so how does Plex86 support guests in disk image files? I haven't looked at this, so you know more than I do, but I am surprised, I would have expected Plex86 to virtualize disk accesses. Not arguing the point, just surprised and a little confused. (In case it wasn't clear in my original post, I was writing about Plex86 requirements, not host OS requirements)
