If you dont use the BIOS wouldn't you have to access
the disk via i/o ports? If so, you would have to adhere to
the SCSI/ATA standard rather than a more conformed interface
via int13? If you did have to adhere to the different standards
wouldnt that mean implementing the drivers in the MBR/PBS?
I think _I'm_ the one missing something :) Can you fill me
in?
