I got it working with IdeFix Express adapter, sd card and cd rom connected on each port @ OS 3.2. First installing AtapiMagic, then using the mountIDE utility from IDEFiX 97, then it showed in the scsi.device list.

AtapiMagic setting,:
Enter these lines into the already written lines @ S:Startup-Sequence:
Version exec.library version 47 >NIL:
If Warn
LoadModule libs:modules/atapimagic L:System-Startup ROMUPDATE
else
Loadmodule libs:modules/atapimagic
EndIf

"Once Workbench has booted you can check that atapimagic is properly installed by opening a shell and typing:

> loadmodule list"

Copy mountIDE to : (from IdeFix97 disk) and run it @ startup sequence:
c:mountIDE >NIL:

Then use  your cdrom in your cd file system of choice, i used AsimCDFS for old time sakes (SCSI_inquire to see the unit, or findDevice form IdeFix to see the unit list).

You can still use IDEfix97 with Amiga OS 3.2x, just install it as normal but don’t choose the change startup-sequence, startup when AmigaOS starts option. This will setup the dev DOSDrivers entry and the relevant filesystem entry in L

No need to use AtapiMagic.

By the way… Holly Thread resurrection Batman! 😉🤣

I agree,

He is mixing 3 different products. IDEFix atapi.device works fine.
