Hello all.
First off, I'd like to give kudos to the Plan 9 Guys. I've had a lot of fun
playing with the free PC distribution. I just got the full distribution and
I'm excited to get it going, which leads me to my question.
I have an IDE CDROM drive on my PC, and quite simply I was wondering if there
is any way that I can mount it under Plan 9. I tried various incantations of
bind on '#H1' (it is my second IDE (slave) drive), to no avail. I suspect one
of two things: (I suppose these are obvious...)
1. I have the wrong incantation, or
2. IDE CDROM drives will not work with Plan 9 currently.
I suspect #2 is the right answer. Thanks for any suggestions. I may just
borrow a SCSI CDROM and use that, but I'd like to be able to use my CDROM
drive in the long term. (I have a PC in transition from IDE to SCSI, so I
can deal with both...)
Jon

There's no problem posting the source; from what dmr said last week
it's not a problem until there's enough out there that someone could
re-engineer the whole system...
I have a Toshiba ATAPI drive I've been meaning to write the driver for.

Hi
I did a driver for ATAPI CDROMs, in particulary I'm using a creative Quad-speed
CD, which is ATAPI compatible. It serves /dec/atapi/cd for data CDs, and
we have a program vcd which get audio out of the CD :-).
If you are interesting mail me. It contains some code from
devata.c so I'm not sure how to send it to you.
