Proposed aeBIOS Int 13h extension
Int 13h Read Sector/Write Sector
al = number of sectors
ch = cylinder
cl = sector
dh = head
dl = drive
ebx = buffer flat 32 bit address
advanced/extended
DOS like Read/Write File:
al = 0
esi = zero terminated file name ptr
DOS like absolute Read/Write Sector
al <= 128
al > 128
ebp = number of sectors large
al = 0 OR al > 128
Synchronous - block caller until complete
edi = 0
Asynchronous - immediately return to caller
edi = handler address
