These observations lead me to believe that the convetion for pc98 boot loaders is to have a jump unstruction, followed by a string, followed by code. The jump usually doesn't have a nop after it and usually the string is NUL terminated, but Grub/98 breaks both of these rules. # I looked for, but failed to find the Minux boot blocks for PC-9801 port.
