Anyone know if this will work under WinUAE? Or is that just a stupid question?
Paul_Gadd
Yes it does, and btw it is developed using UAE.
So here is my question:
What would be the settings on WinUAE, in order to recognize the CD-R by MakeCD? (I'm using the latest version of both programs).

First of all download IDEFIX (http://wuarchive.wustl.edu/~aminet/disk/misc/IDEfix97.lha) or similar software so your cd drive(s) are actual mounted or edit a cd drive mount list so it points to "uaescsi.device") and give it the UNIT number of your drive, (ie UNIT=1 slave on IDE0 or UNIT 2= Master IDE1, UNIT= 3 Slave on IDE1)
I assume your using a IDE burner so use the CDR_SCSI3_ATAPI driver in Makecd and the standard ATAPI driver for your reading device (if using burner set the above driver)
Any probs/questions just ask or join the MAKECD mailing list (if that still exists).

For fun, I ran makeCD under the Amiga Forever emulator. I just wrote an ISO9660 image under the amiga. Then I wrote that to the CD on the PC side. Oddly enough, I could not get makeCD to work on my real 2000. :-)

Was it an A2000HD Professional military spec Computer? It's the only model that can stand equally to a Powerful (STRONG) PC ;-)
What I'm planing to do is to add some files from my Amiga HD to an open session Backup-CD that I made on Amiga long time before.
Now the CD-RW is on the PC side, and I want to make some free space on my HD without losing file properties and file comments. Plus I want to continue adding these file to the existing open session Backup-CD (I've already tried to create a MakeCD ISO image, and burn it with Nero but the session is permanently closed)

what exactly is the use of idefix on uae ? uae comes with its own scsi.device (uaescsi.device) which makes scsi.device patces such as idefix redundent.

The IDEfix patch itself is of no use. But IDEfix comes with CacheCDFS which is one of the best CD file systems ever.
But it is the Demo version only and comes up with nerve requesters.
You should use AmiCDFS instead, if you don't have OS3.9 (which comes with a registered version of CacheCDFS).
BTW, you don't need a file system for MakeCD. MakeCD writes CDs, the file system reads them. These functions are independent.

Maybe it will work if I paint my 2000 olive drab, or cammo.... maybe recase it in an old ammo can like the peecee case-modders. :-)
Anyway, I was more interested in just taking a 'snapshot' of the Amiga's HD for backup. I don't use it enough for there to be a need for incremental backup. But I was worried about some of the properties & comments. That's why I tried doing the CD on the Amiga. I figured I could just copy the iso image over on the portable scsi drive I use for such things.. As it was, I just settled for doing an LHA and a ZIP archive.

Keep in mind that some old CD-ROM drives (i.e. my old x4 Toshiba) don't comply to the modern standards, so trying to read a CDRW disk, an open session disk or an ultra-high-speed-written disk might be impossible.
