ROM Module for booting directly from CD

[Ancalimon]

Has anyone made a module for Blizkick (or simply a module which can be loaded with loadmodule) which makes CD0 visible in bootmenu allowing us to boot from a CD ?

I want to create an AmigaOS 3.9 with all the patches made and a floppy which loads things like patched scsi.device and a bootmenu with CD0 in it and reboot the machine.  After that directly booting from OS3.9 cd without need for floppy any longer.

I doubt it has been done and while technically feasible I don't quite get the point of this.

You'd boot WB 3.9 CD in order to do what?

to install it directly from CD without having to install and setup 3.1

Maybe I could burn a new ROM for it ?


I think being able to boot from a CDROM would be something really useful.

@Piru:

Because then I can?  I guess booting cd32 games or cd32 compilations would be cool too.

It actually bothers me that I can't see CD0 listed among my drives in the bootmenu  Even CC0 is there.

I actually want my Amiga's to be self sufficient.

If it were possible, I would have even wanted to see network drives visible in early boot menu and be able to boot from them
