 disable movb $ASCII_BEL,%al and callw putchr works like a charm (tested)
 BUT
 you will run boot0cfg -B disk where disk is the diskname where MBR stands. Eg: 
 boot0cfg -B ad0
 
 If you don't launch the command, patch will not be applied so a reboot after a 
 make and make install is not the full solution to avoid "BEEP".
