I have some disk file that boots up via a startup-sequence, but I'm trying to speed it up by bypassing the filesystem and doing sector reads directly through the boot-block so don't have to wait for startup-sequence to load and run the script.  Any ASM source small enough to fit into boot block to read a few sectors into a fixed memory location (that works regardless of kickstart version)?  Wanted to ask since I know some disks that do boot directly and don't have any filesystem and thse whdload people must be expert enough to have knowledge of this stuff.  Or should I figure it out on my own from hardware reference manual.
