dood like its my fault it wont work , ive done all everyone has said , and as for vintage , ive spent a fortune on this thing,
the reason i want the cd rom to work is so i can spend more money on os3.9, so please dont say i dont appreciate it , i think it is time it was in silicone heaven dood,
not that i dont apreciate the help from everyone but if it wont work, what is the point in trying to fix it if it cant be fixed !!.

 IT WORKS,
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA
i can now unpack the idefix, and yes the cd rom now works.#
now ine got to find out why dh0: sudenly nodos and was empty.
could it be because the partition is just over 2gig.???.
but anyway THANK YOU  for all the help,
DAM this amiga thing is hard work.

what is Zorro autoconfig, is it an os insted of amiga os, ????
like i said im a total newb as they say.
anything has to be better than what i have installed at the moment, talk about basic looking and it dont realy do that muck, there isnt even a media player, even win 95 had a media player, not a very good media player , but it had on,
PMSL,
its going to cost a fortune this old thing aint it,

my amiga is not internet ready yet but i do have the cd working after neraly 2 weaks, well just over a weak, it took me that long just to set up a cd rom , {bleep} i aint ready for all this yet, take it steady,
LOL, one thing ata time , im a pc freak, i like computers to do things for me not the other way around , this is what i cant get into my head, why have a computer  that you have to tell it what to do in a shell box, and if ya dont it wont do anything, ???/
mmmmmm, microsoft have got it in the bag realy dont they, you install windows and everything is done it even knows how to unpack things . lol.

so to install 0s3.9 its easyer to use a pc, see what i mean about pcs, they have the market tied up.
DAM i thought this would be easy to set up a compter that is older than my kids,

i dont think its a case of doing things that ya dont know about, i think its because there are that many people with pcs now that they have to cater for every one and they have to give an operating system that is capable of doing everything that it is expected to do, like my windows vista machine , i would be gutted if i paid all that money for it and it couldnt extract an archive that i downloaded or it couldnt read a file because i hadnt installed a libary for,
i know i can buy os3.9 and that might do some things better than it dose now, but can i say it will be better than windows, mmmm, i dowt it , but i will try it to see,
