The CardPrep tool recognizes them and idefx97 seems to understand the unit. When I tell idefx to mount the CD, there is no complaint but no icon appears either.
Is it generally possible to use PCMCIA CD-ROM drives on A1200s? If so, I'd appreciate any and all tips on getting this working.

Only PCMCIA cd-rom controllers especially made for the Amiga will work..forget the rest
Examples are Alfa Data CD1200, Squirell SCSI
