Comment (by meianoite):

 Hey, that's '''Progress'''! =D

 But that also means that somehow the code is looping. I can't see how this
 would happen if not for loading the same sector over and over. Would you
 mind posting a hex dump of your MBR?

 Also attaching a version with even more tracing and some instruction
 shuffling. Now it will print its progress at it tests for LBA read
 support. It will pause for a key press after the letter 'k' (for "Okay!)
 is printed.

 Now the code is packed real tight. I'll have to give up some tracing
 points is we find that the latest changes don't help.
