metados & spin works on tos but not on Mint.

I also found BetaDOS to be more reliable under MiNT than MetaDOS/MetaXBS. However, I haven't used a CD-ROM with an Atari since 2001, so things may have changed since then.

Since Mint v1.16, it stops working. probably because they migrated the TOS filesystem to their own code (is faster now).

But something funny happens - the path seems to be gone... all the ACC cannot find it's own RSC files![]()
weird...

Ok, all items commented except:

*BOS, c:\auto\spin_sd.bos, A:12
;*DOS, c:\auto\unidrive.dos, X:A
*DOS, c:\auto\bd_9660f.dos, H:A

It is repatching some vectors or something like that.

With the last two I have long filenames on many CDs, but there are some that can just be dealed with using 8.3 filenames it seems.

Can anyone give me more information on this? Like where would I get a HD Floppy Drive, and is there any other changes or wires I need to solder to the Atari in order to get the HD floppy drive going?

May not work for games, demos nor your slideshow.... slideshow not sure.
Graphical output that uses the blitter will be faster, but games & demo may draw direct to screen whereby NVDI will be skipped.
Also it sounds like you do not need the extra fonts.

You have plenty of space with your Satandisk so the extra stuff may not be burden.
