It is *not* a DOS interrupt.  INT 19h is a BIOS interrupt, but points right at
the code with loads and then executes the boot sector.	DOS does not know or
care about INT 19h (except insofar as VDISK.SYS uses a stub INT 19 handler to
locate the data from previous invocations).

Essentially none, in fact.
