Currently, we give up after the first int13 fails. Not a problem for emulation, but reading likely has a chance of failure.

Proposed solution:

determine the max recommended amount of bytes to read
keep a count for retries
for each retry, reduce the number of bytes being read (reduces chance of failure)

Affects cdboot.S and stage2.S
