Well, you had me scared.  I wrote the following CHASM program:

------------------------- cut here -----------------------------
;=====================================;
;WARMBOOT     Version 1.00            ;
;          1990 by David McIntyre     ;
;                                     ;
; Source file for CHASM.              ;
;=====================================;

	INT 19H
------------------------- cut here -----------------------------

Well, one nice thing about CHASM is that you don't need a bunch of
garbage.  Anyway, this program, compiled into boot.com, reboots my
computer.  A warm boot, actually.
