I found an error in the BSEDEV.H of the SDK. In the structure
BIOSPARAMETERBLOCK a reserved field is missing (in comparison to the
documentation).

/* Error in BSEDEV.H */

typedef struct _BIOSPARAMETERBLOCK {    /* bspblk */
    USHORT usBytesPerSector;
    BYTE   bSectorsPerCluster;
    USHORT usReservedSectors;
    BYTE   cFATs;
    USHORT cRootEntries;
    USHORT cSectors;
    BYTE   bMedia;
    USHORT usSectorsPerFAT;
    USHORT usSectorsPerTrack;
    USHORT cHeads;
    ULONG  cHiddenSectors;
    ULONG  cLargeSectors;
    BYTE   abReserved[6];   /* this field is missing in the original file */
    USHORT cCylinders;
    BYTE   bDeviceType;
    USHORT fsDeviceAttr;
} BIOSPARAMETERBLOCK;
typedef BIOSPARAMETERBLOCK FAR *PBIOSPARAMETERBLOCK;
