I have a 'true blue' XT, with  an 80286 processor add-on board installed.
First thing for me to do was trying to install Bruce Evans' stuff, but
it wouldn'T boot in protected mode.

After some work I tracked the problem down to a AT-BIOS call used to set
the processor into protected mode.
I do not have access to an AT, neither to a Tech Ref. Can anybody help me
and post the neccessary processor commands to set it up properly?

And Bruce, are there any more machine dependand (AT-dependand) routines
embedded?

Thanks for the help I might get,
