- - a CD-ROM with IDE-Interface
- (e.g Mitsumi FX-400)
- - a device driver
- (you can get a demo version from Aminet
- idefix.lha disk/misc 247K Newest Demo (104.1) of the IDE-fix...)
- - a new IDE-Cable
- (because the gap between the two connections for devices might be to narrow;
- you have to try for yourself)
-
- This are the things I used for installing a CD-ROM drive in the A4000/030 in
- my computer club. Other CD-ROMs should work as well. Concerning the device
- driver, I'm not sure whether there is also one in the AsimCDFS package (I have
- heard it from a retailer, but I haven't seen it for myself).
