I use also Asim now because, if I remember correctly, it handles long file names better.  Camy, how do you read CDs made on newer OSes?

I think AsimCDFS is free now.


Sorry to hijack,but it does not matter what os the cd is written on,amiga has no problem reading any cd.
I use cachecdfs under os3.9 but have asim(which is at ver3.9 i think) on older machines. Cachecdfs works great for me.

os3.0 and 3.1 came with a cd filesystem. It works with scsi drives mainly(may work on idefix with ide drives). all that you must do is drop CD0: from storage: into devs:dosdrivers and then edit it for device name and Unit # and save it. double click on it to activate or reboot and its up and running. Its a bit primitive but works.

Asimcdfs also worked well on machines with ide cdroms as slaves since it patches the ide much like idefix(you dont need idefix with asim).

I also use amicdfs on many of my Amiga's,it is free and works well but i don't think it supports joliet.

there was also allegro cdfs with UDF(dvd) support but is reported buggy.

Some CD/DVD burning tools:

Burnit (cd's)
MakeCD 3.2D (released to be free) (cd's)
Master ISO (CD's)
frying pan (CD/DVD's)
franko's tools.. (dvd's)
