Yes, I'll be glad to work on the caching code 
(but will first look at the bios boot from CD, so
if someone else is anxious, go ahead and let me know)
but I lost much time because of a
problem I and others noted. When an win98 scandisk runs then
somehow the keyboard input is screwed up.

I looked at the sources yesterday and today but cannot find the
reason. What happens is that port 0x60 is read JUST before
the bios keyboard service entry point (int09_handler) is called.
(Normally it is read IN the int09_handler)

The result is that the read of port 0x64 in this routine
fails (bit 1 is clear due to the read of port 0x60) and the key is lost. 

I suspected some kind of race condition but have not found it.

Any ideas, someone ?

Tom
