http://www.mcc.ac.uk/grub/grub_24.html  section "The format of the table
entry" shows x86 registers for bytes 1,2,3 and 5,6,7 (CHS) of the entry.

It shows 1,5 = DL, 2,6=CH and 3,7=CL

I believe 1,5 should be DH.

Examining http://www.mcc.ac.uk/grub/grub_22.html , DH is used for head
number and DL is used for drive number (MSBit set for hard disk).

=====

I find the table entry description to be a bit confusing in general because
register names are mixed with mnemonics such as TB for the partition "type
byte."

====

In any case, I am glad the resource was available when I needed it even if
it did take a bit of deciphering.  Thanks!

Respectfully,
