Future Domain SCSI CONTROLLER - REINITIALIZE DRIVE

AH = 19h
DL = hard drive ID

Return:
CF set on error AH = status code (see #00234 at AH=01h) CF clear if successful AH = disk type (03h = fixed disk) CX:DX = number of 512-byte sectors

Notes: Sends SCSI Read Capacity command to get number of logical blocks and adjusts the result for 512-byte sectors. Displays either "Error in Read Capacity Command" or "nnn Bytes per sector" (nnn=256 or 512, the only sizes supported in the translation code). Should probably be called when a removable device has its media changed. Returns the same values as AH=15h. The TMC-950 does not support any Future Domain BIOS calls; instead, it provides a full CAM implementation (see INT 4F/AX=8100h)
