I want to read disk parameters. This is my code:
Code: Select all
int13ah48:
MOV DWORD [0xc000],0
MOV DWORD [0xc004],0
MOV DWORD [0xc008],0
MOV DWORD [0xc016],0
MOV AH,0x48
MOV DL,0x80
MOV CX,0
MOV DS,CX
MOV SI,0xc000
INT 0x13
JC fin
MOV [0xc000],AH
int13ok:
RET
fin:
JMP fin
I ran it on VMware and Bochs, CF set and AH set to 0x1. Why?

You need to tell the BIOS how big your buffer is. The minimum buffer size is 26 (0x1A) bytes. You're telling the BIOS your buffer is 0 bytes.
