AH = 0Bh
AL = number of sectors (01h may be only value supported)
CH = low eight bits of cylinder number
CL = sector number (bits 5-0)
high two bits of cylinder number (bits 7-6)
DH = head number
DL = drive number (80h = first, 81h = second)
ES:BX -> data buffer

Return:
CF clear if successful CF set on error AH = status (see #00234) AL = number of sectors transferred

Notes: Each sector's worth of data must be followed by four to seven bytes of error-correction information. Used for diagnostics only on PS/2 systems; IBM officially classifies this function as optional
