Device Request 18H: Set Logical Device

                                                                ◄Blk► ◄Gen► 
 Tells the block-device driver that a particular unit number will be
 referred to by a particular drive ID number.  This is in support for DOS's
 "phantom floppy" feature.

     bUnitNo  On entry, this identifies how DOS will refer to this unit at
              the user-interface level.

              It is zero-based, relative to the number of logical drives
              supported by the driver.  For instance, if the driver supports
              two diskette drives (A and B) but only one physical diskette
              drive is present, then a call with bUnitNo=1 means that the
              physical drive will be referred to as drive B.

     rStatus  On exit, the driver must place a DevStatusWord here.  Always
              set the Done bit (bit 8).  On an error, set the Done bit and
              the Error bit (bit 15) and put a Device Error Code in the low
              byte.

   Notes: ■ Only device drivers capable of handling Get/Set Logical drive
            requests need support this (see Device Attribute bit 6).

          ■ The "phantom floppy" concept lets DOS pretend (for instance)
            that a one-diskette-drive system actually has a drive A and a
            drive B.  For instance, if the user types: Dir B:, then DOS
            prompts the user to "Insert diskette for drive B:" and sends
            DvRq 18H (set logical device) to the driver.

          ■ This is the device driver "catch point" for DOS fn 440fH (IOCTL
            set logical drive).
