IDE on X-SURF
« on: January 18, 2004, 02:46:16 PM »
Hi All,
I recently installed an X-SURF network card that has an IDE connector on it .  I am wondering if anyone has tried using an IDE CD drive on this.  If anyone has done this I would like to know how they did it and what if any software is required.  If so please dumb it down for me.  Just the simple bare basics please.  I have also noticed that the Catweasel also has an IDE connector.  Mabe it would be better to use it.  I'm interested in learning if that can be used in the same manner.  Thanks.

AFAIK you only need the xsurf_atapi.device


I think I have that already.  At least it comes up when I run HDTools.  Might that have been with the X-Surf software?

Hi Duesi,
Sorry about the delayed response.  I did indeed find that the above mentioned software was already on my Amiga from the CD ROM that came with the X-Surf.  I installed a CD drive.  I can go into HD Tools and see xsurf_atapi.device listed as well as the CD Rom drive.  However, it is not mounted and I don't know how to do that.  the readme text I have for this says it will be automatically mounted on start up but it's not happening.  Any suggestions?  HDTools will not mount the drive.
