[Coco] Is there a way to Run a CD-ROM drive using something other than the SCSI cartridge pak?

[Mark Marlette]

Kip,

SuperDriver should work READ only on the Gside or sIDE interfaces.

I don't remember if we tried that or not, but I know it supported ATA and ATAPI devices.


HawkSoft's CDF file manager also a plus for the ISO9660.

Hi Everyone,


Does anyone know if there is a way to run a CD-ROM drive on the Coco 1, 2 or

3 using something other than the SCSI controller?  I don't have a SCSI

controller for the Coco, but after reading some of the CD-ROM emails lately,

it occurred to me that I had never hooked up a CD-ROM drive to my Coco.  I

know it is possible to use the IDE Interface on a PC to run a CD-ROM drive

so I was wondering if the same could be done with the SuperIDE Controller or

the Glenside IDE Controller.  Has anyone ever tried this before?  Any help

would be much appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
