A block-device driver problem - unknown number of BPBs

by "R.Wieser" <address@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jul 22, 2008 at 11:27 PM

Hello All,

  I'm trying to write a block-device driver, and stumbeled upon a bit I
can't place : In the both the initialisation and createbpb functions I
have
to return an array of BPBs.

The problem is that I can't seem to find *how many* BPBs I should return. 
I
can make a few wild guesses, but can't seem to find any info about it.

I've got the highly-praised book of Robert S. Lai about "Writing MS-DOS
Device drivers", but alas, that one stops where the real fun seems to
start
....

In short, I'm looking for a bit more complete info about building a
block-device driver, especially about the above-mentioned.

Regards,
  Rudy Wieser
