NAME

    WriteBlock

SYNOPSIS

    error = WriteBlock( bb )
    D0                  A0
    USHORT WriteBlock( BootBlock *bb );

FUNCTION

    Write a block to disk after filling in its RDB correct checksum and a
    reread for write verification. This function also performs a read to
    block 1000 before the reread with the hope that this will tend to flush
    drive buffers before the reread test.

INPUTS

    bb      Pointer to a BootBlock structure containing all data necessary
            for performing the write including the bb_BlockNum field.

RESULT

    error           The same value as returned in bb->bb_RWErrors.success.
    bb->bb_RWerrors will have all fields filled in with the failed_word filled
    with the number of the first byte that fails on the reread compare.
