Note: To support LBA or LARGE mode of HDDs, there must be some
software involved. All the software is located in the Award HDD Service
Routine (INT 13h). It may fail to access a HDD with LBA (LARGE) mode
selected if you are running under an Operating System which replaces the
whole INT 13h.
UNIX operating systems do not support either LBA or LARGE and must utilize the
Standard mode. UNIX can support drives larger than 528MB.
