Heya Christian,

I use the same kernel to boot from a hard-disk, and also from a CD-ROM, and 
both work correctly.

The following patch (against latest CVS) enables the floppy to boot correctly.  
This patch was suggested by Jani Monoses
(http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2004-08/msg00132.html).

Given that it works with this patch, I can't see how it could be a kernel 
config issue, no offence intended :)

Damien
