REL
The first piece of OS-9 Level 1 loads from the boot track (track 34, sectors 1-18) into memory starting at $2600.
A 2 byte execution start address follows the two-byte signature 'OS'.
The RELocate code copies the boot track from $2600 up into $F0001) and transfers control there into the Kernel (part 1) module after RELocation.
