Problems installing cd rom drive on amiga 600

[motrucker]

The Squirrel SCSI interface works like most SCSI interfaces, the only exception being the name = squirrelscsi.device in this case. With that in place, and the CD0 icon in the DOS devices drawer, and a CD file system in place - you should be getting some positive reaction.
I use ASIMWare CDFS, but any should work.

Ok. that seems to be pointing to your internal IDE (which, confusingly, is controlled by 'scsi.device' for legacy compatibility reasons). Also, the unit doesn't look right, but this is usually set in the icon itself.

Anyway, try changing the last 2 lines as follows:

device = squirrelscsi.device
unit = 0

That should have him off to the races.
  I usually suggest using the ASIMware CDFS because of its "SCSI Inquire" program, that does almost everything for you. Great deal for the novice!
