If there is demand for greaseweazle I can add it.
In that case, +1 for Greaseweazle support here :) This would be great functionality to have but, as above, I don't want to buy another device when I already have a Greaseweazle.

Add explicit option to add CDRom drive to custom systems.

I thought I would get on the bandwagon and try installing 3.2 from scratch on my A600GS. I've set up a custom system with a fresh, blank HD and ticket the box to add a CD-ROM drive but... how do I "insert" a CD ISO? Apologies if there's anything in the forum addressing this already but the search isn't working at the moment.

Edit: Figured it out. Explaining here for anyone as unimaginative as I apparently am.

Insert New Disk, change the drop-down to ISO files.

The UI could definitely be clearer. I was expecting CD0 to appear at the top like DF0 DF1 etc. Also, if you don't have a CD drive attached to your system, inserting an ISO silently fails. Feels like it should either warn you or remove the option from the dropdown.

3.2 up and running now :)

Just got round to digging out my Greaseweazle to try on the A600GS. I have a PC floppy drive but only flat cables (no twist) from the Amiga but it works fine from my PC if I tell the software to use drive 1. Is there a way to specify this for the A600GS? I just tried, hoping it would detect or try different drive numbers but nothing happens :(
