Congrats to the you and the entire plex86 team for this achievement.
After a long time, I am actually checking out plex86.
I found a small error. Its not critical and also the fix is straight
forward. However I thought I will just mention it either way.
If the plex86.conf (or equivalent) asks plex86 to load a floppy image and
the path given is not valid, then it just displays the corresponding
message and continues further, this won't be a problem, if their is
another floppy or h/d image, which is properly loaded.
Otherwise, later when trying to boot from the above missing floppy image,
it gives a panic and quits in the floppy_command function, as a request to
read the 1st sector comes, but sectors/track is 0 or rather there is no
floppy image loaded.
Rather if the specified floppy image cann't be loaded and its the boot
device, we should be panicing out there itself. Rather than waiting for
later.
Also maybe in the comments in the conf files, we can mention that the
paths given are with respect to the path from where plex86 is run and not
with respect to where conf file is.
