"QUESTION: Is there any software available for the drive… and … is there any basic program which will make the Amiga recognize the new addition?" Sure there is Hilary, all kinds of drivers now. If you have 3.1 of the Amiga OS, it includes a CDROM driver. Then there is the commercial drivers and software packages like the ASIMCD filesystem, and CacheCDFS. And then there is the good public domain driver AmiCDROM available in library 9 of this forum as "AMICD.LHA". Most of the software is fairly easy to install, and once it is installed, it is accessed just like any other Amiga drive, usually with a device name like CD0:. // John (Warp 4040 & Emplant Quadra 840) \X/ Mercury@ins.infonet.net
