* stage2/builtins.c (install_func): If DEST_DRIVE is a hard
  disk, enable the workaround in Stage 1 by replacing the jmp
  with double nop's.

  * stage1/stage1.h (STAGE1_BOOT_DRIVE_CHECK): New macro.
  (STAGE1_BOOT_DRIVE_MASK): Removed.

  * stage1/stage1.S (boot_drive_check): New label. This implements
  a different workaround for buggy BIOSes which don't pass boot
  drive correctly. This is effective for BIOSes which pass a value
  without the seventh bit (0x80).
  (boot_drive_mask): Removed.
