partition magic

Hi Shaun. Well I have been contemplating the jfw authorization scheme for a while. I will probably try to dig up some debug util and try to analyze the floppy disk sectors for anything that may be traced back to jfw. I say this because my friend bought a dell a while ago, and he figured out that Dell puts a compressed image of the system on a specific disk sector on the hd, so he had to use debug or something similar to remove it.
