0A91:0102 F2            REPNZ
0A91:0103 AE            SCASB

The opcodes F3 and F2 are disassembled by Freedos's DEBUG as if
they are the same. Found this by accident while trying to find out
why Sidekick does not load under Freedos. The reason for that,
apparently, is that Sidekick expects an INT 28 instruction
somewhere in the segment that holds the INDOS flag, and Freedos
doesn't have that. In the location where MS-DOS has INT 28,
Freedos has INT E6. Don't know what that means of course.
