      2 GCC & 32-bit code
      3 -----------------
      4 Due to the limitations of the COM file format,
      5 (64KB limit on memory footprint) the code has been changed
      6 so that the code compiles to a 32-bit COMBOOT program.
      7 Since the code makes use of BIOS calls, this code cannot be
      8 compiled into a format which can execute under Linux. As a
      9 side effect, there is no nice way to debug this code. In order
     10 to debug this code, you will have to run the code under syslinux.

     12 GCC & 16-bit code
     13 -----------------
     14 The code was ported to GCC by Peter Anvin.

     16 OpenWatcom & 16-bit code
     17 ------------------------
     18 Originally this code was written for the Openwatcom compiler
     19 and generated .COM files, which could execute under DOS as well as
     20 SYSLINUX.
