Ok follow the tests I've done:

2.3.21+Linus s/outw/outb/ patch:

rdev floppy : no way ( same Vojtech's result )
loadlin 1.6a: no way ( blank screen )

2.3.21+Chris bootcode fixes, take 3

rdev floppy : BOOT OK
loadlin 1.6a: BOOT OK

2.3.22-1 :

rdev floppy : BOOT OK
loadlin 1.6a: no way ( blank screen )

thanks,
luca
