Ohh, didnt realise that the burning software would work if it didnt have a
workbench filesystem driver! I guess I'll install the MakeCD demo off
AACD19 (I think it was when I searched) and see what I can get that to do.
I am not too hopefull about the situation though. Guess it serves me right
for buying cheap'n'cheerful ehh! :-/

Hmm.. I tried Allegro CDFS and it would only do the same as CacheCDFS did -
read the audio track side of the disks, but nothing else. I aint too sure
what settings that there are available.

I suppose I could either sling it into my PC (urgh, slow P133) and burn over
the network or take it back and see if I can afford one of the more
expensive drives. (looks like I'll take it back tbh)
Anyway, thanks Neil :-)
