of course it works. this method isnt some kind of accident, but is due
to 9boothyb loader i wrote, see /sys/src/boot/pc/mkfile ... its also
documented in 9boot(8):
ISO HYBRID BOOTING
With the 9boothyb loader, an ISO image can be made into a
bootable disk by creating a MBR and appending a bootable DOS
partition containing 9boothyb renamed to 9bootfat. The
loader will read the ISO filesystem as if it were stored on
a CD-ROM drive.
