I don't know the Minix monitor.
Bootkit bootblock needs the drive number in DL register only.
Note that the partition offset (0 with floppy) is hardcoded in bootblock
by the installer. i.e. if you get the bootblock of partition 3,
(# dd if=/dev/hda3 of=/boot/bootminix bs=1024 count=1), /boot/bootminix
will always boot partition 3 assuming dl register is correct.
1- chained: Bootkit bootblock needs only DL register
2- chaining: Bootkit bootblock restores CX, DX, SI, DI, BP and set:
CS=DS=ES=SS=0 IP=7C00 SP=7C00 FLAGS.D=0 FLAGS.I=1
