|    ISO CD image    |

      From: muta...@gmail.com              For PDOS-generic, I will be doing BIOS calls to a special       BIOS that supports fread/fseek-like calls, and treats a       hard disk, or hard disk image, as just a flat file.              It occurred to me that I should be able to point the BIOS       to an ISO CD image and allow the OS to fread/fseek over       that too.              Is that something that a BIOS would be technically capable       of doing dynamically with a real CDROM?              Thanks. Paul.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
