Problem setting up CDROM Drive with A2091

[BoingBoss]

I agree with AmiMan.  He sounds a lot like the DoomMaster, who knows what he is talking about when it comes to the Amiga and Atari ST computers.  If AmiMan is the DoomMaster then you should listen to what he has to say.

Hi Jope,

Can you elaborate on that? Why does it matter what ID you set the rest of the devices to?

It mainly has to do with the way Amiga software in general "sees" the SCSI devices.  It also has to do with Boot Priority.  Remember, the A2091 reads the SCSI IDs from 0 to 7.  So it is a good idea to have your hard drives first, then your CD-ROM drives, then your Zip or Tape drives.  As a good general rule SCSI IDs 0 to 2 are for hard drives, 3 and 4 are for CD-ROM drives, 5 and 6 are for zip or tape drives.
