    ASPI4B.SYS vs. ASPIIBM.SYS (from Peter)

    As the documents ASPI4B.TXT and ASPIIBM.TXT already explain:

    ASPI4B.SYS is a Tool from Adaptec for IBM to transfer "a sort of" ASPI-Manager functionality to the "Spock-like" IBM MCA SCSI Adapter
    along with the functions of the INT4Bh interface that these adapters
    normally use.

    How does this work with the "proprietary Int 4Bh func. 80h - "IBM
    SCSI interface." ?

    Dunno if it even uses Int 4Bh...
