- Firstly, make sure the device driver (eg., scsi.device) is set to check
- for LUN numbers after 0. With scsi.device, this can be done in software
- with Setbatt. With the WARP Engine SCSI host, it is a jumper setting.
-
- Here is an example AmiCDFileSystem DOSDriver I use with a Pioneer DRM-602x
- 6-stacker. I leave the cartridge out during boot, since the SCSI bus will
- load and check each CD before continuing with the boot-process. This
- becomes tiring pretty quick, and consumes memory.

- CONTROL=L
- ACTIVATE=0
- DONOTWAIT
-
- If you want to mount each available CD on boot, place the DOSDrivers in
- WBStartup instead, and set ACTIVATE=1. The DONOTWAIT tooltype makes the
- mounting process asyncronous to the rest of the boot process.
-
- As you can see, the unit is "02", meaning that the first CD is LUN 0 on
- SCSI ID 2. The next CD in the sequence is "12" (LUN 1, ID 2), and the last
- of 6 would be "52".
-
- The CONTROL=L tooltype maps ISO-9660 names to lower case on WB3.x systems.
-
- Hope this helps...
