Future Domain SCSI BIOS - SEND SCSI MODE SELECT COMMAND

AH = 05h
DL = hard drive ID
ES:BX -> mode select data (see #00236)

Return:
CF set on error CF clear if successful AH = status code (see #00234)

Notes: This function can be called before AH=07h"SCSI" or AH=06h"SCSI" to format a SCSI disk with the desired parameters. The mode select data below is from the SCSI-1 specification. The TMC-950 does not support any Future Domain BIOS calls; instead, it provides a full CAM implementation (see INT 4F/AX=8100h)

See Also: AH=06h"SCSI" - AH=07h"SCSI" - INT 4F/AX=8100h
