Shoot this down: Since the M-Sys firmware in the DOC simply installs an int 13h handler, why not use it to access the DOC using "bios" calls. I realize that the kernel probably overwrites that handler but that could be fixed. I don't know, however, about using a real-mode interrupt from a device driver. It seems too simple to work. What have I overlooked? thanks, -Matt To unsubscribe, send "unsubscribe mtd" to majordomo@infradead.org
