Hi,

does anybody have an idea how one can fake a disk change?

Int 13, Int 21/0D and Int 32/5D01 do not help because
they only recalibrate the disk and/or flush buffers.

I have to clear all information (especially the size of the 
disk). Dos shall look this up in the boot sector on the
next disk access.

Any help appreciated!

Klaus
