Automount will not work in OS4. Use hardware devices in CD and Harddrives:
Eg. I have
Device: Accelerator:1
Volume:CD
Path:E:\

Note: You must use accelerator SCSI or IDE driver, NOT HDF!
Note2: You can use not only physical CD drive, but also CD images.

Ok it works but transfer rate seems real slow. copying quake 3 folder its taking ages. could it be because my cd drive is usb and not built into the laptop.

There isn't much you missed I think because most PPC stuff I have on my OS3 system has both 68K and PPC support, and if there is something else its probably ported stuff you already have on your Windows machine.

Do you use SCSI or IDE?

Scsi is a bit faster but both cause it to crash when copy large file.

What filesystem you use and how big is that file?


Don´t use FFS, if you need support for files bigger than 2 GB, you need SFS2. For boot partition, you may use SFS.
