I wish to be emulating a CD-ROM so the MSDEX program can be used on top.  
Merely supporting int 2f MSDEX 1.0 and MSDEX 2.0 is not enough, 
Microsoft does not seem to use these functions to read data blocks.
(I was basing that information on Ralph Brownes lists and running INTERSPY 
from Undocumented DOS.)

Is there any book or FTPable file which specifies what I must implement
to make a CD-ROM.  Is the MS-Press CD-ROM book useful.

Erick
