Use CD32 as A1200 CDROM Drive?

redneon · 23 February 2005, 10:32

Is there any way I can use my CD32 as a CDROM drive for my A1200? Preferably so it actually shows up as CD0 but I don't particularly mind.

Get a serial connection between the two, and then use something like ProNet, SerNet or Twin, all of which are available on the Aminet.

ProNet should allow you to share the CD drive between the 1200 and the CD32, so you can mount it as CD0. However, as you're limited to Amiga serial speeds, don't expect it to be quick.
