Comment(by Quozl):

 detailed reproducer: using a 128 MB USB drive, erase the partition table,
 use gparted to create an MS-DOS partition table, use gparted to creatge an
 NTFS filesystem, attach to an XO-4, then power up.

  * reproduces with repeated ''boot'' commands,
  * ''load-size'' is zero, indicating that no boot file was loaded,
  * ''dir u:\'' yields ''Unimplemented package interface procedure'',
  * ''add-tag BD int:\boot\olpc.fth'' is a viable workaround,
