I downloaded the 2038 version, the most recent nasm dos version at the 
most recent openwatcom compiler.
I get things to compile without any error, sys the version to a floppy 
and reboot but it hangs after showing "FreeDos"
This is the case with either Bochs as with a regular boot. I did not 
modify the original sources ...
I tried to put a diagnostic printf in de main.c but it wasn't called. It 
looks a bit like the entry point is never called.
Should I use an older version of OpenWatcom (instead of 1.8) or a 
specific NASM version ?

Thanks in advance,

Thomas
