Precedence: bulk

Would it be a good hack to install the motherboard's int 13h in boot1
(first part of the boot before entering protected mode) instead of the
external one in the interrupt table ? Then, the Promise bios would be
disabled for FreeBSD and enabled for any other system.

Anyway, my FreeBSD partition is under 1024 cylinders.
