Data corruption in some BIOSes

[ÐÐÑÐÑÐ ÐÑÐÑÑÐÐÐÐÑ]

Hello,

I am working on some project where I need to boot winxp from linux,
and I am using kexec for it, but in some computers it doesn't work.
When kexec jumps to my kernel, in kernel  I am switching to real mode
and try to call int13h to read mbr sector. But I have one
computer(with AMI BIOS and this computer is newer than others) where
this BIOS call doesn't work.
I think it is the problem with data corruption of BIOS memory, and I
also have compiled 2.6.27.6 kernel(where is applied patch
X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K), but it didn't help.
I think maybe I'm doing something wrong, maybe I need to do restoring
reserved BIOS memory in kexec kernel function before loading new
kernel?

Please help me!

Thanks, Serhiy
