Title: DVD reader... CD reader...
Post by: Mauro73 on May 12, 2008, 09:12:09 PM
...and so on:

how can I make A4000 able to read data from an ATA CD or DVD?

I have a spare Pioneer DVD-RW and a spare CD-ROM reader (IDE).

Is there anything alse I need then connecting cables to the A4000?

For example: cd file systems...

Thank you in advance

Just to read data? Yes, you need to install one of the many CD filesystems (see Aminet) and the atapi.device. It exists inside the idefix97.lha archive, i don't know if you can find it elsewhere.

Yes, but IDEFix is demo. You need to register to remove the demo requesters. Other than this, it's fully functional.
