Since we're on free software, we can do better. Instead of sticking to an
obsolete interface, we can define our own in both sides. E.g. define how
a CD layout has to be to be bootable by BIOS-less GRUB.
Well, the ElTorito standard is used

Does the code require a BIOS to work, i.e., do you rely on BIOS

I've cleaned up the code and created a patch which will enable allow
booting from the first CD-ROM on a system. This

All right, I took a look at the Bochs BIOS source code, and they seem
to be implementing just one Int 13h function that is specified in the
Eltorito specification: the 4B01h that isolinu
Thought I'd write a little status update on this project.
So far I can:
* identify CD-ROM drives
* read Eltorito descriptors off the CD
* parse Eltorito descriptors, and interpret them
* load bootable images from the CD in memory
Currently, the nag is that ISOLINUX at least uses Eltorito Int 13h
