I'm confused because I'm dealing with the same problem. The 4-disk system
seems to want SoundBlaster attachment for the CD-ROM, but my
SoundBlaster16 attaches CD-ROM drives as IDE CD-ROMs (and it doesn't
work). Could some (patient, tolerant) person explain to a non-PC person
like me what I need to hook up to get the CD-ROM loaded? I currently have
an NEC CD-ROM drive attached through a SoundBlaster 16 card's IDE CD-ROM
port.
Originally, the Sound Blaster 16 CD-ROM port used a proprietary interface to attach
Mitsumi, Panasonic or Matsushita CD-ROM drives. IDE (ATAPI) CD-ROM drives have become
popular recently and there are now Sound Blaster 16's which can use those drives (e.g.
the Vibra 16). We didn't have time to incorporate ATAPI support in the distribution
but I am testing a driver right now and hope to have it available in an updated 4-disc
system soon.
