This new BASIC command works the same way as the old CALL SYSTEM, but it will always load MSXDOS2.SYS even if NEXTOR.SYS is available. This helps getting back some TPA memory, since MSXDOS2.SYS is smaller than NEXTOR.SYS, but at the expense of not being able to use the Nextor-exclusive function calls (so tools like e.g. MAPDRV.COM won't work).
Change the mechanism to access mounted files from file based to sector based. - A new restriction is introduced: a file needs to be stored across consecutive sectors in disk in order to be mountable. - Message for error .ICLUS has been changed from "Invalid cluster number" to "Invalid cluster number or sequence". - New BASIC error code introduced: code 82, message "Invalid cluster sequence". - The _GDLI function call will now return two extra values for a drive that has a mounted file: "start cluster" and "start sector"
Add a new KILLDSKIO environment variable to disable DSKI$ and DSKO$ When set to "on", the 512 byte buffer for DSKI$ and DSKO$ won't be allocated, and the commands will be disabled.
