Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No problems that went with this feature, I was asking for some few 80286 machines in 86Box.

Describe the solution you'd like

Since I've been using 86Box for months, I just wanted to add some few 80286 machines in 86Box.

There are 3 BIOS files in the zip file. Some 3 BIOS files include a readme file before you check at the BIOS files.
List of machines that needs to be added:

  1. Sanyo MBC-25 PLUS
    Uses (Chips & Technologies 82C230 (Single Chip Model 30)) chipset,
    Internal video controller was an Western Digital WD90C00-JK.
    It has included an internal HDD controller BIOS.
    Maximum RAM of the Sanyo MBC-25 PLUS is 8MB.
    PS/2 mouse was supported
    Only has 3x 8-bit ISA slots, I think you can have support for 16-bit ISA cards.
    BIOS type: Phoenix Technologies
  2. Schneider System 240
    Uses (Headland GC101,GC102 (12/16MHz PC/AT Compatible Chip Set)) chipset,
    It has an included internal video controller (low/high)
    Maximum RAM of the Schneider System 240 is 4MB.
    PS/2 mouse not supported
    BIOS type: Phoenix Technologies
  3. Zenith Data Systems Z-248
    Uses (ZyMOS/Appian POACH) chipset,
    No internal video controller
    Maximum RAM of the Zenith Data Systems Z-248 is 6MB.
    PS/2 mouse not supported
    BIOS type: Zenith Data Systems
    NOTE: BIOS files are found on TheRetroWeb.

BIOS files are here:
80286 BIOS images (or files).zip
Before using the zip file, don't forget to use the readme file.
(If the BIOS files can be emulated, please let me know.)
