CD filesystems
« on: February 15, 2011, 03:54:34 PM »
AsimCDFS, AllegroCDFS, CacheCDFS, AmiCDFS...

After my 3.0 to 3.1 upgrade issue, my CD drive is no longer recognized.  I am pretty sure it has to do with AsimCDFS, as when I re-add my "old" user startup script, it tries to load Asim but then gurus.  Unfortunately I cannot simply reinstall Asim as it came "preinstalled" on my new to me A4000.  After some shallow Googling, it also looks to be one of those commercial not in the PD but the company is clearly tits up type programs which would involve a lot of stupid "wink wink nudge nudge" on this board or others to track down the latest version of Asim.  I really just don't have the energy to play that game right now, so...alternatives. The idea would be that I could install this and if later on down the road I add a DVD/RW it wouldn't bat an eye.  I can download allegroCDFS off of vesalia, but it comes bundled with some turboata stuff I have no use for.  CacheCDFS I have no idea about, and Ami is of course free off of aminet.

If you were to be satisfied with one CD?DVD accessing solution for 3.1, which would it be?

You could have a look at Setting up a CDrom drive in here:-

:)

I assume that trick will work with 3.1 as well?
