INT 13 - DISK - READ SECTOR(S) INTO MEMORY     
	AH = 02h
	AL = number of sectors to read (must be nonzero)
	CH = low eight bits of cylinder number
	CL = sector number 1-63 (bits 0-5)
	     high two bits of cylinder (bits 6-7, hard disk only)
	DH = head number
	DL = drive number (bit 7 set for hard disk)
	ES:BX -> data buffer
Return: CF set on error
	    if AH = 11h (corrected ECC error), AL = burst length
	CF clear if successful
	AH = status (see #00234)
	AL = number of sectors transferred (only valid if CF set for some
	      BIOSes)
Notes:	errors on a floppy may be due to the motor failing to spin up quickly
	  enough; the read should be retried at least three times, resetting
	  the disk with AH=00h between attempts
	most BIOSes support "multitrack" reads, where the value in AL
	  exceeds the number of sectors remaining on the track, in which
	  case any additional sectors are read beginning at sector 1 on
	  the following head in the same cylinder; the MSDOS CONFIG.SYS command
	  MULTITRACK (or the Novell DOS DEBLOCK=) can be used to force DOS to
	  split disk accesses which would wrap across a track boundary into two
	  separate calls
