Int 13 Fn 18 - Future Domain Scsi BIOS - Get Scsi Controller Information [d]
AH = 18h
DL = hard drive ID
Return: CF set on error
AH = status code (see AH=01h)
CF clear if successful
AX = 4321h (magic number)
CX = controller family code (see below)
---if family code=0200h
DH = number of exclusively ROM-controlled SCSI devices
DL = canonical SCSI device number for specified drive
---if family code <> 0200h
BH = number of exclusively ROM-controlled SCSI devices
BL = canonical SCSI device number for specified drive
Notes: also sets an internal flag (non-resettable) which prevents some
controller messages from being displayed, allows writes to
removable devices (use caution!), and enables the INT 13 interface
for more than one drive (i.e. DL >= 81h) in at least some ROM
versions
the TMC-950 does not support any Future Domain BIOS calls; instead,
it provides a full CAM implementation (see INT 4F/AX=8100h)
