    Fixed problem with FreeDOS mini boot floppy image EIP > limit.
      I forgot that (floppy) DMA transfers are writing to memory mapped
      guest memory, so the prescan cache was not being invalidated.
      Added an ioctl to invalidate the cache, and works fine again.
      This may fix problems with other boot floppies not working.
      BTW, the FreeDOS beta5 mini.bin image is not good.  I got it from:
 
       
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/beta5/mini/mini.bin
 
      Execution gets "sent into the weeds".  After some time debugging
      it, I popped it in a real PC, and it hangs on that too.
