CacheCDFS problem, cd0M uninitialized

SimonV · 26 October 2016, 12:19

I want to use OS3.9 included cdromdriver because a registered copy of idefix gave me some troubles while messing around with big IDE hardrives and PFS3 ... I am already not sure anymore why I ruled it out in the startup-sequence.

Anyway, after that I installed Asimcdfs 3.9 but that one hanged while mounting the drives 50% of the time I booted. So I decided to use OS3.9's build in cdromdriver.

Now I have this problem. If I boot with a cd in the drive it showes up fine, however when I eject the cd the icon does not go away. Also when I don't boot with a cd in it I get cd0:uninitialized....

What I did so far is removing the cachecdfs that was in L:, all cd0 icons from previous cdrom software and reinstalled it ... but to no avail. What Am I missing ?

The drive is a scsi one on a DKB rapidfire.

Whats in the mount file. you don't need to remove stuff from L: / Devs:. Its all setup in the mount file CD0 / CD0 Tooltypes.

Ah, problem solved. AmigaOS3.9 installer does activate the SCSIdirect by default. Removed it and it works now.

I had the same issue, but, for my drive, I had to turn SCSI-direct on to make ti work properly. I suppose it depends on which CD-ROM drive you are using.

I think it depends on the controller like it mentioned in the "help" file during installing. And I think so also because I have two different drives ( a plextor writer and an older Compaq cdromdrive ) and they both acted the same.

Where do you turn on/off SCSIdirect? Thanks

thomas · 23 January 2018, 23:01

Run Prefs/CacheCDFS and untick SCSI direct, then click on save.

ahhh. I just found it and was coming back to say I did. Thank you, Thomas! FAST!
