Accessing info from Boot Sector of Diskette
I am writing a Floppy Disk Driver and need to find out what the "Sectors per track", "Tracks per cylinder", and the "number of cylinders" on a disk. I have a book that tells me that this info is held in the boot sector of the disk in locations such as:
0x18 0x19 Sectors per track But doesn't even begin to explain how to access this data. Can anyone tell me how to access this?
