It says ?? but boots XP just fine.  If you care about the cosmetics then 
I posted a patch which makes it say DOS instead, a while ago, done out 
of curiosity more than caring.  I only *know* it works for non-serial 
consoles, in that I haven't compiled it with the relevant serial 
#defined so don't know that it's under 512 bytes.   It also incorporates 
a patch from elsewhere to turn off the beep.
