  --------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
    Function 2Eh turns the DOS VERIFY switch on or off. If VERIFY is on,
    DOS reads the CRC (cyclic redundancy check) bytes of the just-written
    data, and verifies that they are correct. Note that setting the VERIFY
    switch ON does NOT cause a read-after-write verification of data
    copied to the disk, only a verification of the CRC bytes.
 
       Notes:         In DOS 1 and 2 only, DL must be set to 0 before this
                      function is called.
 
                      Network disks do not support the verification
                      function.
 
                      Use Function 54h (Get Verify Setting) to determine
                      the current state of the VERIFY switch.
