Notes:	Some implementations of Remote (Initial) Program Loader (RPL/RIPL)
	  don't set bit 0 to indicate a "virtual" floppy drive, although the
	  RPL requires access to its memory image through a faked drive A:.
	  This may have caused problems with releases of DOS 3.3x and earlier,
	  which assumed A: and B: to be invalid drives then and would discard
	  any attempts to access these drives.	Implementations of RPL should
	  set bit 0 to indicate a "virtual" floppy.
	The IBM PC DOS 3.3x-2000 IBMBIO.COM contains two occurences of code
	  sequences like:
	    INT 11h
	    JMP SHORT skip
	    DB 52h,50h,53h; "RPS"
	    skip: OR AX,1
	    TEST AX,1
	  While at the first glance this seems to be a bug since it just
	  wastes memory and the condition is always true, this could well be
	  a signature for an applyable patch to stop it from forcing AX bit 0
	  to be always on. MS-DOS IO.SYS does not contain these signatures,
	  however.
BUGs:	Some old BIOSes didn't properly report the count of floppy drives
	  installed to the system.  In newer systems INT 13h/AH=15h can be
	  used to retrieve the number of floppy drives installed.
	Award BIOS v4.50G and v4.51PG erroneously set bit 0 even if there are
	  no floppy drives installed; use two calls to INT 13/AH=15h to
	  determine whether any floppies are actually installed
