Actually, this code is left from the original code of Anthony, and it seems he took it from qemu 0.8 version. Anthony, may you explain why you want to hijact the linux boot process here? If I understand correctly, we can just let the original int19 execute, and if linux boot is desired, it would work in normal way. So why you want to do this?
