Subject: [LIB] Hibernation / EZ-BIOS strangeness

hi all

Just thought I'd report some findings back to you.  I installed a 20GB drive
into my 50CT and, after *much* cursing (we're talking cursing on a grand
scale here) I got the right EZBIOS working.

However, data on my large partition at the end of my drive (9GB-20GB) was
getting corrupted, despite it being well out of range of the standard
hibernation area at cylinder 1016-1024 or thereabouts.

I left space at the very end of the drive and, guess what, no corruption.

So I'm guessing my 50 is hibernating by making calls through the EZ-BIOS
int13 replacement.  but this doesn't really make sense - how does it know to
use the extended int13 when reloading on resume????

My brain hurts.  If anyone has the canonical answer to this, it would be
appreciated.

And if someone wants to send me a "drive walker" or other mythical beast,
I'll do the search and find out exactly where the thing is hibernating to...

Nick.
