I did E-mail him my Emergency-Disk as an ADF file last night. It should work if he has an IDE hard drive as master and an IDE CDrom as slave on the same IDE lead.

It will boot into 'PAL Hi Res' screenmode :pint:

You're very welcome :-)

My initial thought is that you should be able to get everything you need to get your CDrom to work from the Emergency-Disk (seeing as that gets it working ok)

The driver CD1 is in Devs/DOSDrivers of the floppy.

IDEfix files are in C of the floppy.

The CD filesystem is in L of the floppy.


Going from memory your HDD startup-sequence in Workbench:S will also need the lines:-

If exists C:IDEfix
C:IDEfix
End IF

nobody has confirmed to me in the thread I started a few weeks ago about that issue.


Prehaps the people here are unable to confirm it for you mate. I would if I could but I can't so I won't :-(
