Then, I booted WindowsXP. Still normal. Then, I booted my
bootable CD with the development kernel.
FreeDOS kernel version 1.1.35w (Build 2035w -UNSTABLE, Jul 10 2005)

I then went back and attempted to reboot Beta9SR1:
WARNING: Partion ID does not suggest LBA - part PRI: 4 FS 06
and it hung!
FDISK /info /tech or interactively (Y for large disk support, option 4)
appears to have changed my partition table.
WindowsXP is still happy for the moment. chkdsk notes no errors
on the FAT partition.
