Do you remember this quote, "There can be only one!"
Regardless, it is not the file system per se, but the controlling software; ASIMware's CDFS know to use the unit numbers of the SCSI ID numbers. You are aware that an A2091 (for example) uses ID #7 for the controller, leaving you 0 to 6 ID numbers for your device. Each device can have 7 unit numbers: a CDROM changers set to be device 3 will access each of its CD Drives by the unit numbers (0 to 7). There by each drive gets a number like 035 where the drive is unit 5 on device (ID#) 3.
You can do this by hand and set up a mountlist for each drive in a changer, or just use ASIM-CDfs that also allows each drive to be used with a GUI.
AS I recall, you can have up to 7 controllers or so, in your computer, in which case the mountlist might contain "235" for controller 2, ID 3, drive 5.
Thanks for both or your replies.
I will try using ASIM-CDFS. I own (actually multiple versions as always got the upgrade) ASIM-CDFS since AmigaOS 1.3 through 3.1. I started using the internal file amiga CDFS at 3.5 and above. more or less I was wondering if there were better configuration or easier you use configurations or more powerful configurations than ASIM-CDFS offers.
@danbeaver "There can be only one!" That is just like us in the Amiga community that hang on an old computer from the second age of man kind. "My Precious!"
I think with this some units you are partly correct. I think some of the CD changers are set up the way you describe, but some use luns.
I think this one uses luns (as this is a Six disk changer). So you really need a SCSI controller that can handle Luns, like an A3000 internal, or a gvpscsi. If my memory serves, (it as been a while) the 235 you are referring to is correct, the 2 is controller, the scsi ID is the 3, but the Luns or "drive" is the 5. (correct me if I am wrong). Most fixed hard drives have a lun of 0, but drives with multiple media (like a multi card reader) have multple luns with one id, so the CD changer is "probably" lun 0-5. Otherwise you would quickly run out of Scsi IDs which is not the case with may readers.
