6Jun 6, 2002 - v1.2
7Eltorito.sys does now also finds the correct driver number for the booted CD-Rom
8on a Dell PC with very buggy BIOS. It does not clear the carry flag after a
9succesfull call to int13/ax=4b01h call. Other PC's also using Phoenix BIOS
10version 1.10 A14, or alike maybe also benefit from this "workaround".

13- All read requests are now retried 5 times.
14- Bug fix, had...
15	cmp	ax, 3FFFh		;Too large?
16	ja	ReadLBad		;If yes
17  seperated from...
18	mov	ax,es:[bx+18]		;Get number of sectors to read
19	mov	word ptr [SpecPkt+2],ax
20  so, it was checking "wild" ax values...
21- Some cleanup and small changes
22- The tracers give trouble when using SHCD..
23- Reverted proc ReadL back to Rev. 0.15BETA

26- Bug fix, when changing CD media some machines would "hang" in the PriVolDesc
27  routine.
28- Added printing of TRACER characters to trace the bug above
29- Major cleanup and now using ASCIIZ strings

32- Fixed a "pad devicename with spaces" bug, this only happened when a device
33  name was used with less than 8 characters, for example, "MSCD000" became
34  "MSCD000("
35- Bug fix, when eltorito.sys was called with invalid command line parameters,
36  garbage was printed and sometimes followed by "system halted" that has been
37  there since the very first version of eltorito.sys. I know that because I
38  had the bug back then. When loading eltorito.sys using a device loader,
39  for example "device.com eltorito.sys /test:123" garbage was printed instead
40  of "No device name found." "driver not installed".
41  Changed the error message to include a "usage" string.

44- If diskemu.bin is loaded eltorito.sys uses the drivenumber from diskemu
45  A call is made to "diskemu/Get status" (INT13/AX=5400) and the drivenumber is returned in CL
46  This should fix boot problems on Dell PCs (YES!)
47  When diskemu.bin is not loaded, eltorito still loops all drive numbers using eltorito calls.
48- Removed "press Escape..."
49- When the Alt-key is pressed (and holded) more info is printed and eltorito.sys halts
