In this part I successfully boot the new 286 mainboard into MS DOS 5.0 using a Gotek floppy emulator. Even Maniac Mansion runs on the machine, since it fits on one floppy.

Next steps will be to get the hard disk up and running.

The hardware I am using:

Magitronic B233 Baby AT Mainboard, Suntac Chipset, Intel 80286 CPU at 12 MHz, 1 MiB RAM (https://bit.ly/2HnTPU9)
Trident TVGA 9000C 512 KiB SVGA graphics card (https://bit.ly/2JKQHA5)
LCS-6624G Super Multi I/O card (https://bit.ly/2qxfuQ2)
