INT 0E - IRQ6 - DISKETTE CONTROLLER
Desc: this interrupt is generated by the floppy disk controller on
completion of an operation
Notes: default handler is at F000h:EF57h in IBM PC and 100%-compatible BIOSes
may be masked by setting bit 6 on I/O port 21h
DOS 3.3+ revectors IRQ6 to a stack-switching routine unless STACKS=0
has been set in CONFIG.SYS. MS/PC-DOS use the IBM Interrupt Sharing
Protocol (see #02568) when hooking this IRQ
SeeAlso: INT 0D"IRQ5",INT 56"DESQview",INT 5E"DoubleDOS",INT 7E"GO32"
