I am not up far enough in 1.5 to comment on floppy.c, but I have looked at
bootblok.s for 1.5 and can tell you it needs mods to boot from a 1.44 meg
drive (and if the test in floppy.c is the same it will need changes too!).
I changed the 1.3 bootblok (basically adding a test for an 18 track drive
before the 1.2M test and removing some code as bootblok got too big) which
I will post (if someone doesn't beat me too it!) once I 1) get the 1.5 
kernel up (the next day or 2 I hope) and 2) get the right output translate
tables here to get unmangled code postings out of this machine!
