ASIM-CDFS help please!

It should be in Devs/DOSDrivers.

Only thing in there is 'Pipe' and it can't be smoked.  lol

OHHHHHHHH.... you mean on the ASIM disk!

Okay... just edited the mountlist.cd0 icon and am now reinstalling. Any bets it still doesn't work?  :lol:

And of course, it doesn't!  :mad:  How and why in the heck does this thing insist the unit is 4 after changing the damn mountlist on the original disk?!?

I did try editing CD0 in Storage to no avail. So I shouldn't need that 4 way IDE adapter? I believe I've exhausted all my options. Not a terribly big deal though mounting a CD ROM with only 1mb of Chip RAM. With the AsimCDFS software loaded and caches set to minimum, it wastes waaaay too much RAM to make anything else of much use. After 3.1 loads and the CD software, it was down to 550-600kb of memory! lol  

Ended up just putting a Slingshot and A2091 card back on her. While I don't have the proper cable or a SCSI CD ROM to try out, I'm confident that scenario will work should the buyer decide to give it a go.

    I have never had this much trouble with Asimware CDFS. BUT, it doesn't support everything out there. You should check the Asim disk you have to see if it supports the hardware you are using. You may need a newer version (V3.10 was the last one).
I have the manual here somewhere(!). If I can find it, I'll scan it. Maybe that will help you out.

Thanks buddy, but I'm good. I've got a couple of different retail versions, at least one manual and the latest version I think I have is 3.7. Using OS3.1, 3.5 and 3.9: AsimCDFS is simply not needed for most all of the hardware I've ever thrown in my systems over the last 16 years. I might give it a try again if I ever get a Nakamichi 7 disc changer though. :lol:

OR did you mean for the CDTV or CD32 emulation? No longer have an AGA Miggy and don't really care about CDTV software. Have people had good luck emulating those machines with AsimCDFS? It's something I tried delving into when I had an A1200, but could never get it to work correctly or consistently.
