I have problem like this, but this line "MEMDISK 1.66 2002-01-01 Copyright 
2001-2002 H. Peter Anvin" i've never seen :))? because it stops after "boot" 
command.

I am using the CVS version for loading several different bootfloppies via 
memdisk. Works like a charm!

It is a known bug in 0.92 and it should be fixed in the CVS
version. Can you try the CVS version?

Thanks,
Okuji
