Dude, it's a goddamn Zip drive.  Throw it in the trash and buy a cheap CD-burner.

A voice of sanity enters the discussion!  Yep...get a CD burner.

Haha yeah thats a good one but doesnt really help me much here and second of all i do have a cd burner which doesnt seem to work with cd on fire and i aint got £50 right now for make cd.
Nah that isnt true about the id numer considering my cd drive is unit 1 anyways...
Oh well nevermind lol not even elbox`s own manual works,wow.....

But anyways just for the hell of it i did change the id number to 6 and yeah it doesnt work.So anyways i guess its time to quit with the stupid thing,thats the only problem with amiga os everything is such a puzzle to even configure even when you do follow the useless manual.

I have a Zip 100 hooked up to my A500 via A590!  Rocks.

Really? you`d better tell Elbox that their docs are wrong then .
Remember, when using the trackdisk emulation, the unit numbers are different from those used in a scsi.device mountlist.

BTW, you did set the prefs to enable the Trackdisk patch for ATAPI devices ??

Hmm i dont recall doing so,how do you do that then??? but yeah my cd drive is under cd1.
