I'm still puzzled by this.  I can believe the "INT 18: Boot failed" message as 
a result of "exit", but not as a result of "sanboot --drive 0x80".

Could you try building with DEBUG=int13 and take a photo or screenshot of the 
result after typing "sanboot --drive 0x80" at the command line?

Thanks,

Michael
