@ David H Lipman

In real life, my pal from IBM has said that he HAS seen this!

Tell me again who the *we* is to which you allude.

Why should I believe you - a cyber-adviser - as against a real life

EZ-Disk's EZ-BIOS will do this quite easily, EZ-BIOS is a BIOS extension,
which breaks the older IBM/AT CMOS's LBA 8.4gb HDD barrier. Any good
programmer could write code like this, it writes code to the boot sector
first, before the OS loads.

This is a disk overlay, not quite the same thing as patching the actual
BIOS firmware from software.

I would think the flashable vector code would have to be installed first,
before the PC is powered up. Yes/no?
