As it seems nothing is working, are there any options worth investing ?

Here's my current version of the BIOS, if anyone wants to try patching it ...

Which is a bare Caldera DR-DOS bootfloppy containing only the strict minimum to boot.

And the GAT11DE.BIN image and AWDFLASH.EXE executable. I created the bootdisk on a ...
