A500 + A590 HD = Can Read CD Rom Drive ???
I bought an A500 with A590 Hard disk connected on the side then It comes with a CD Rom drive enabling the A500 to read cd rom discs.
The A500 has a 2.0 Rom which I took from a broken A600 i got. But then the HDD got problem so I format the A590 HD and put a new workbench 2.05 in The problem is now it wont Read the CD ROM. I bet is due to the fact I format the A590 HD right ? So how do I enable the A500+A590 to boot / read the Cd rom as before ? any drivers, utilities need to be installed on the A590HD first ? Please help! The A500 has 2.0 Rom, 2.05 WB, A590 Hard disk space is 690 MB Thanks! |

You have to install a proper CDFileSystem
 Just check out the Aminet for AmiCDFS ! If that doesn´t work with your CDRom, try the IDEfix97 Demo from Aminet
