Hi, Jeroen,
I am new to this list, but since I saw you guy talking about CDROM boot
then I would like to have some input.
There is already implement write by suzhe and me, it is part of the
Smart Boot Manager http://suzhe.gnuchina.org. It can boot Windows 95/NT/
2000, Linux, FreeBSD, BeOS CD.
But still have some bug on a few CDROM, initial detect fail.
You can try it out safely on a floopy image.
I can help to make it work on plex86 if there is a need.
Regards,
Chris
