   I had a similar logistics problem. My current development is on Fat16   
   and runs in a VM. To test it on real hardware I'd have to write to a   
   partition on another machine's HD. That was too much work to set up   
   straight away so I pulled out some old code which has a Fat12 loader.   
      
   It was a bit of a nuisance as I had to build/mount/write/unmount,   
   transfer a floppy and reboot for each test but it was adequate as long   
   as there weren't too many experiments to run.

   That's a good test but I haven't got time to run it ATM and I'm going to   
   be away for a few days. Will reply to posts when I get back.   
      
   We should try to predict what will happen. What would you expect? I   
   don't know yet but I'll have a think about it.
