Using hdd in pm

[DS]

Can anybody give some valuable information about how to use
the hdd in protected mode?  thus not using int 13 and not switching in virtual
mode?

mh... sorry I think you'll have to code your own int13h-like routines in protected mode accessing hardware registers...

You can just read from HDD without any interrupt. Just by ports. It is slow but always working.
