INT 21 - DOS 1+ - GET ALLOCATION INFORMATION FOR SPECIFIC DRIVE
AH = 1Ch
DL = drive (00h = default, 01h = A:, etc)
Return: AL = sectors per cluster (allocation unit)
CX = bytes per sector
DX = total number of clusters
DS:BX -> media ID byte (see AH=1Bh)
Note: under DOS 1.x, DS:BX points at an actual copy of the FAT; later
versions return a pointer to a copy of the FAT's ID byte
SeeAlso: AH=36h
