INT 2F - DR DOS 6.0+ IBMBIO.COM - REGISTER ROOT OF UPPER MEMORY LINK AX = 12FFh BX = 0009h DX = new value for root segment of upper memory link Return: AX = 0000h if supported ES:BX modified Notes: the DX value is stored at offset 66h in SYSVARS (see INT 21h/AH=52h) and offset 18h in the Novell DOS 7 internal variable table (see INT 21/AX=4458h) This API is provided by IBMBIO.COM for the initialization phase of drivers loaded via DEVICE=/HIDEVICE=/DEVICEHIGH= directives and is only available during these short time intervals. It is probably initiated by the Novell DOS 7+ EMM386.EXE. this function has apparently been supported since DR DOS 6.0 "Buxton" of 1991/03/19 for Novell DOS 7, ES:BX points at the internal variable table DRDAT, but this may change in future releases
