I have a MSDOS device driver (for a SCSI disk and host adapter)
that I originally wrote in assembler (the shareware A86) that
I now want to convert to C (hopefully, Turbo 1.5).
Does anyone have tips on doing this?  I know what I
have to write in C for the structures, etc., but I do
not understand how to do the linking, etc., to get
the required binary format for the driver.  I also
assume that I would have to get it to run without
the startup code, and I am wondering if this will be
a problem.  If anyone has done this or can recommend
a book or magazine article, please let me know.

Thanks in advance,
