Summary

Although PPC OFW loader already had a LOADER_MSDOS_SUPPORT option, a few lines were missing in conf.c, in order to support FAT filesystems.

This is useful when running FreeBSD under QEMU, to be able to easily change the kernel and modules when running on hosts without UFS read/write support.
