Just been playing around with ELKS on my TI TravelMate 2000, and I got
the same problems with init and sh.
When I compile the kernel to get drive info from INT13, it seems to get
the number of sectors on a floppy wrong - it seems to think there's 19
sectors. Hence, loading init fails miserably.
Re-compile turning "Use INT13" off, it correctly identifies 18 sectors.
I don't know if that's an issue with my laptop, or with the code - it
might be interesting if people conduct the same experiment (kernels
with and without using INT13) and post the results.
