People will want to shoot me for saying this, but here goes:
Buddha Card + IDEFix will make your life soooooo much easier here! Yes, & it is fairly cheap too! 
Not only will it let you use a cheap IDE CD/DVD-ROM drive (with NO fuss), but it recognizes ZIP drives too (with native drivers, boot from 3.1 Install floppy & there it is...awesome for backups!).
PZ.
I'm with you all the way here. As someone who has used a Buddha in an A2000 and A3000 then I say grab one and let the included software take care of all of your troubles.
