# Demo of reading and writing to disk.
#
# Steps for trying it out:
#   1. Translate this example into a disk image code.img.
#       ./translate ex9.mu
#   2. Build a second disk image data.img containing some text.
#       dd if=/dev/zero of=data.img count=20160
#       echo 'abc def ghi' |dd of=data.img conv=notrunc
#   3. Familiarize yourself with how the data disk looks within xxd:
#       xxd data.img |head
#   4. Run in an emulator, either Qemu or Bochs.
#       qemu-system-i386 -hda code.img -hdb data.img
#       bochs -f bochsrc.2disks
#   5. Exit the emulator.
#   6. Notice that the data disk now contains the word count of the original text.
#       xxd data.img |head
