[comp.os.minix] bootblok.s

This adds further information to my earlier posting concerning the version
1.3c bootblok.s.

I'm running a Zenith Z-248 with a 1.2 M floppy as drive 0, and a 360K floppy
as drive 1.  The problem with the new bootblok.s occurs when I create a 360K
boot disk on drive 1, and then attempt to boot it on drive 0.  The earlier
bootblok.s allowed me to do this.  I *am* able to create a 1.2M boot disk on
drive 0 and then boot with it.  I guess this isn't a serious problem; it's
just a surprise the first time it happens, and a nuisance if one can't
figure out what is really happening (or if one has no 1.2M floppies!)
