12.3. Initially I started with 13.0 and noticed that visually its loader
crashes the samely as 12.2's does (and later as 12.3 does), and I've stuck =
with
the 12.3.

Got it, thank you.

This never happens in my experiments (or goes seamlessly). Using V86_IO_BUF=
FER
always is successful.

n BSS.
If no buffer overrun when using V86_IO_BUFFER (that is 4K large), how can it
happen when using bio_buffer (that is 16K large) if all other conditions are
the same?

Also I am trying to decrypt the symptom that the crash occurs not in the sa=
me
point of loader run. Seems that the bio_buffer area is somehow used by BIOS
concurrently with using it by v86int() (just to remind - the loader crashes
only when AHCI mode set in BIOS settings), or the INT runs somehow differen=
tly
depending on IDE/AHCI mode.
