Not long ago I bought a CD-ROM drive. In principal a nice buy, but I do have a few problems. I use ICD-PRO as a harddisk driver with write cache enabled. I never had a problem with this (and it does speed things up), but when I used my CD-ROM my whole harddisk got corrupted. (And I had not made a backup for several years, because I never needed it.) With the write cache disabled, everything seems fine, but I keep my fingers crossed about this. Another problem is that on one of my CD's there are very many files and directories. The first are recognised, but after a certain point, directories are empty and file's also. When I start my system (or sometimes init later on my CD-ROM driver) I get the following messages: AtariMetados (june 01, 1994) Version 2.31 RMS, RJZ Copyright Atari Corporation 1994 Hard&Soft CD-ROM driver 1.20 SCSI 1: Sony CD-ROM CDU-8003a1.9a CDROM driver (c) H&S 1994 installed as a: on SCSI 1 Hard&Soft Iso9660 filesystem 1.20 Metados device A: CDROM driver (c) H&S 1994 Hard&Soft Iso9660 FS driver installed as O: What can I do about these problems? Greetings, Cecil.
