AX = CDCDh DS:BX -> buffer for address (see #02549) CX = 0001h DX = 0000h
Return:
AX = CDCDh if Stacker installed DS:BX buffer filled
Note: Not supported by Stacker Anywhere; to obtain the Stacker device driver address and to detect drives controlled by all versions of Stacker, INT 21/AX=4404h"Stacker" or lookup via the CDS and DPB should be preferred (see INT 21/AH=52h). Stacker Anywhere does not link its built-in device driver into the standard device driver chain, but it can be found via CDS/DPB
