**Note: if you keep getting errors and your code seems fine, make sure that qemu
is booting from the right drive and set the drive on `dl` accordingly**
Try the flag `-fda` for example, qemu -fda boot_sect_main.bin` and set `dl` as `0x00`
The BIOS sets `dl` to the drive number before calling the bootloader. However,
I found some problems with qemu then booting from the hdd.
Try the flag `-fda` for example, `qemu -fda boot_sect_main.bin` which will set `dl`
as `0x00`, it seems to work fine then.
