- changed a little bit the Bios Config Table address
so the new int19 handler fits whithout relocation

- this revision is based on a patch from Cliff Hones <cliff@aonix.co.uk>.
...
Cliff added to bios_printf the ability to print onto the console. Bryce made
some further changes. Now when a panic occurs, the message is reported both
to the Bochs log file and to the screen, and then it goes into an infinite
busy loop. Why an inf loop? If I do a HLT in BIOS code, current bochs
versions will panic immediately and the user will never see the real panic
message. I have mostly tested the new panic behavior by booting nonbootable
and nonreadable disks.

- add LGPL bios by Christophe Bothamy <cbbochs@free.fr>. When new versions
...
are released, I will remove VGABIOS-cbothamy-0.2a and add a file with
the other version number. I decided not to use the "-latest" naming
scheme because there is no synchronization between bochs releases and
LGPL VGA BIOS releases. Anything that's called "latest" is bound to
go obsolete eventually.

- now floppy controller returns a proper error response if you try to write
...
a read-only disk image. For systems such as DOS that actually use the
BIOS services, it was also necessary to add code in int13_diskette_function
to recognize a write-protected error and return the correct error
status code (AH=3, Carry Set).

[ #430472 ] DOS HIMEM "A20 line" error
All I've done is moved the call to print_bios_banner later in the
boot process, and the A20 problem goes away. I wanted it early so
that it would get printed before any panic or halt could happen.
Oh well.
