State-Changed-By: rnordier 
State-Changed-When: Tue Jul 17 13:03:19 PDT 2001 
State-Changed-Why:  
boot0 is constrained to 446 bytes, for both code and data, and can do 
no more than support a selection of slice types.  Properly supporting 
the various Microsoft slices is actually quite a complex proposition, 
and anyone who uses these is probably better off using one of the 
many commercial boot managers.  6 of the 12 slice types boot0 
recognises are already DOS/Windows, and those will have to do for the 
moment.
