I've not got access to a real amiga these days, but iirc the CD icons will not show up unless a disc is present and the drive is mounted.

Okeydokey... any clues as to how to mount the drive?


my memory fades...  You need to mount it via a mountlist file in storage/dosdrivers/ or devs/dosdrivers/ and you will need an installed CD Filesystem such as AmiCDFS or summat.

If you bought a complete setup, then I would assume the previous user would have had a CD filesystem setup, else why have two CD drives fitted - try typing "mount CD0:" in a shell and see what happens.
