[Oberon] Re (n): Oberon0.Dsk and the BootFile, Native.Bin

[Jack Johnson]

I used a process similar to the wiki instructions years ago to get
Bluebottle running in QEMU:

The gist is that I was starting fresh, so did a native install first,
then did some math on the partition, then booted straight from disk
with:

sudo qemu -hdachs x,y,z /dev/hda

...where x = the cylinder count, y = the head count, and z = the
sector count, all in LBA format for the drive. Because it's not
overlapping the data for the host OS it should be safe, but like the
wiki instructions say, a typo could be catastrophic.
