 | | Hi all, I wonder how I can configure a CD in WinUAE. I have uaescsi.device activated, also CDFS automount CD / DVD drives, removable drives and Automount include removable drives. I have assigned a CD in the CD drive field / image
 What I need to see a CD on the desktop?
 
 Thanks to all

 Are you trying to use virtual CD or real device ?
 
 I didn't try much with virtual ones but real ones work.
 Workaround is to mount it as dir with device name CD0
 and the name of the real CD and most things will work
 just fine.
 
 If you want to use CD32 you can mount iso file from the
 menu and emulated CD32 will boot it.
 
 I'm pretty sure there is better solution though ...

 Put a disk into the CD drive? That's all I've done.

 I'm using a real device. Trying to play T-Zero game with physical CD.

 Try remove IDE:1 CD, maybe there is some conflict with CDFS automount (note: I use CDFS software in guest OS, I have no experience with CDFS automount).

 Did you mount CD0 on Amiga side that is installed
 CDFilesystem ?
 
 T-Zero is same as capital punishment I think , it needs
 lots of chipram so I guess the best way to run it would be
 from CLI without startup-seq.Since it's not CD32 game you
 can use workaround , mount your CD drive as DIR not hardfile
 and give it device name CD0 , name of the disk should be the
 same as the actual name you see on windows.
 
 Then boot without startup and type :
 
 DH0:C/Setpatch QUIET
 
 DH0:C/Makedir RAM:T
 DH0:C/Assign T: Ram:T
 DH0:C/Loadwb
 DH0:C/EndCli >NIL:
 
 Then just open T-Zero icon on desktop and start game , make
 sure cd name is same as the name of actual CD.I think it should
 work that way.

 | | If you mount iso with Daemon-Tools, CDFS automount in WinUAE works greatly and you see CD icon in Workbench environment.
