Amiga 4000 w/OS3.1 - Adding IDE CD-ROM??
« on: December 26, 2002, 04:31:55 PM »
It is my understanding that my Amiga 4000 with AmigaOS3.1 will support a standard IDE CD-ROM device. Is this true? I have attached a CD-ROM as SLAVE to a hard disk. (I have done this sort of thing on a PC many times) What is the secret to make this work? I have played with the mountlist for CD0:  but I cannot make any progress. I have no SCSI controller or devices, only IDE.  Any and all comments and explanations are welcome!

Is the atapi.device part of OS3.1? Are you saying that I only need to modify the mountlist for device CD0: to reference atapi.device instead of scsi.device? Thanks for the information, but I need further details, if you can provide them. Thanks!

Warpiper, Is it my ONLY option to install a 3rd party CD filesystem or upgrade my OS? I thought CD support (even though it may be limited) was part of OS3.1? I appreciate the help, but I would *prefer* to enable the device with a minimum of extra software. Is this possible?
