I've got a question I'm hoping someone can help answer or point me in the right direction. I've got the A2091 hard drive controller with an internal SCSI drive on it. I am also looking to add a drive to the external SCSI port it provides but I've heard there are problems there, especially if the drive has removeable media. I know there are new ROMs available for the 2091 and I have them on order. The drive I am trying to get is the Sony Magneto Optical drive which stores 640 MBytes per disk. Since this is a true SCSI interface I figured that shouldn't be a problem. The problem will probably be with the 2091 and how the disk is mounted and recognized. Anyone have any ideas? If an entry in my mountlist can be added and then the drive mounted then I'd be happy to go that way. I'm not sure how the rigid block stuff works on the 2091. Any ideas or thoughts on this are most welcome. If you have an idea of what a mountlist should look like please feel free to help out! Keith
