I have a multisession Toshiba XM-3401B CD-ROM-XA, which I would
like to connect to the Atari Mega STE 4 (TOS 2.05) via the
AdSCSI Adapter from ICD. The CD-driver METADOS which I once
uploaded to the net this won't work. Maybe I made something
wrong with the setup or this driver doesn't support these kind
of drives anyway. Any ideas? Any other CD-driver that I can
upload and try out? It should support ISO 9660 to work with
standard CDs for using cliparts and ASCII-datafiles.

| 1359.1 | ICD Supports CD Drives for the Atari. | COMET::CARPENTER | Tue May 04 1993 00:10 | 7 | |
Check with ICD Bernd, they now support CD-drives with software called
ICD Professional...unfortunately it's not PD but they also have another
driver that they call ICD Elite (I'm not sure of the name) that MAY be
PD. Other than that I'm not sure but if you're using the ICD AdSCSI
adapter you should have gotten driver software with it and if it's new
at all there will be a doc file on the disk that will let you know what
they have along with their BBS support number. Hope this helps.

| 1359.2 | no luck with ICD by now | UFHIS::BFALKENSTEIN | Tue May 04 1993 03:56 | 9 | |
Thanks for the info. The software I have with the AdSCSI does not
support CD-ROMs. I was trying to reach ICD Europe in Germany, but
received no answer so far. No I'll try their Hotline telephone
number...

To answer my own question...
Well, finally got the CD-ROM working on the MegaSTE! I got the new
ICD driver (from the LINK-adapter), which includes a good working
MetaDOS and includes an audiodriver. Now I have two partitions, one
for ISO9660 CDs, and one for HighSierra CDs. Access to a lot of
cliparts from the PC-world, and a lot of databases in ASCII-format!
I also downloaded a PD-programm called Audio-CD from a BBS, which
enables me to listen to my favorite ZZ-Top CD while programming...
So, if you can get hold of a cheap SCSI CD-ROM, and you have a
ICD SCSI adapter, go for it! It works.
