(Tim Koonce talks about the system hanging when hard disk interface is
used):

Question: is the hard disk driver (and descriptor) part of your
bootfile? If not, and you have loaded it, make *sure* you INIZ the
hard drive before doing CHX, CHD or other related stuff. Cannot tell
you why, but doing it without INIZ'ing can gum up the works. If it
*is* part of your bootfile, try rearranging the bootfile.
