Hi, should we implement this? -->
MEM 0070h:0100h - DOS 5+ - ORIGINAL INTERRUPT VECTORS 10h,13h,15h,19h,1Bh
Size: 25 BYTEs
Note: each value is stored as a BYTE for the interrupt number followed by
a DWORD for the vector
these values are restored on INT 19 by recent versions of
DR/Novell/PC/MS-DOS (MS-DOS 3.x used this area to support HIMEM.SYS)
not supported by OS/2 MDOS
SeeAlso: MEM 0080h:0000h,INT 2F/AH=13
I think it would give int 19h based "hotboot" a chance to actually work.
On the other hand, a virus might bypass shields by reading the original
int 13 vector. Still, pro arguments seem to be stronger than con arguments.
PS: 80:0 / size 102 bytes is used for 286 LOADALL opcode emulation, so
some MS DOS 3.x versions leave an empty space here to allow HIMEM to use LOADALL...
