   qemu-system-i386 printchar.bin

3. To run part 1.b use following commands in shell:

   nasm -fbin bootloader.asm -o bootloader.bin
   nasm -fbin realmode.asm -o realmode.bin
   cat bootloader.bin realmode.bin > result.bin
   qemu-system-i386 result.bin

4. To run part part 2 use following commands in shell:

   nasm -fbin modejump.asm -o modejump.bin
   qemu-system-i386 modejump.bin

5. To run part 3 use following commands in shell:
