    Then your parameters are not being typecaset correctly.
    int absread(int drive, int nsects, long lsect, void *buffer);
    You should use it like
****
    int int1, int2;
    long long1;
    char buffer[BUF_LEN];
    absread(int1, int2, long1, (void*) buffer);
    If you don't typecase your buffer as a (void*) then the
    parameters do not match - and the function is not instantiated.
