SCSI cd rom with AsimCDFS

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

Did you edit the CD0 file to point to the correct device # and L: handler?

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

Drop down to the shell and type:

Code: [Select]

cd devs:dosdrivers
ed CD0
Change the lines for Filesystem, Device, Unit, etc. to match your configuration.  Here's a screenshot of mine for reference, but obviously yours will be different:

Hummm, sounds right so far.  I think the 2091 identifies as 7, so 0-6 should be fine.  If you pop a CD in and do a "diskchange CD0:" at the shell, anything happen?

Or what about just a straight up "cd CD0:"?  If it's recognizing the drive at all it should say "no disk present", or something to that effect.

Is it a known-good drive?  Have you tested it on any other machines?

Edit - you might want to go back and review Gizmo's link to the manual.  I've been spoiled with CacheCDFS in 3.9, which "mostly works", "mostly better", haha.  Probably some AsimCDFS quirks I'm not aware of, though.  

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

Um, I don't have one but is SCSI.device what the 2091 calls for?

99% sure, yes.  

As a side thought, what version ROM's are in your 2091?  You'll want at least 6.6.  7.0 are the latest, although I've heard mention of some kind of "homebrew" 8.0 ROM's, as well.

I almost forgot I've still got a 2091 sitting on my shelf, I've gotten halfway through that SpeedGeek overclock mod on it.  One of these days!

What OS ver are you using?  If its a later OS the settings are done in the tooltypes section of the icon information and not in the CD0 device file.

What version are you talking about?  4.0?  :p

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

3.9.

Buzz!  Wrong answer!  :p

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

Haha, just messing with ya.  You could probably do it either way, but for the sake of consistency here, let's stick with the actual file, eh?  Trust me, I run 3.9 all day long, and I'm looking at a file as I type this.  

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

Well I can tell you mine is in the tooltypes section of the CD0: Icon information.  Considering its not working the conventional way perhaps tony can try it and see.

So you're saying you have no mount file in your Devs: Dosdrivers at all?  Just the .info files?  I don't believe it could possibly work that way.  But if it does for you...  :laughing:

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

Remember asim uses the cd0: icon in storage not in devs/dos drivers

Wow, that's crazy.  :angry:

Also what ROM version on your 2091?  Not sure the exact nature of the fixes but if you read the BBOAH link it says at the bottom that 7.0 "fixed removable media recognition".
