ftp://linux01.gwdg.de/pub/cLIeNUX/interim/Janet_Reno.tgz pmode bootsector handles pmode x86 int calls as real mode AT BIOS calls. I think it might even be reentrant. It worked on a clone but not on a PS/2 with int $0x10 $0x0e ... glass teletype output character. The DDD is the BIOS called from pmode, the other screen noise is straight pmode.
