[Rpcemu] Rpcemu: mounting CDs

Hullo Dave,
                The other responses are by far the easiest way of transferring 6.20 but for general access to CDs in RPCEmu you can mount an ISO image of a CD.  It might seem a little daft to have physical media AND a great big copy squirreled away but for occasional use like this I don't mind the storage cost.

The PC utility I use to rip to ISO is this:

As an aside: on my real hardware I ended up in a world of pain once my UniPod snuffed it just after the 6.20 install and I was forced to return to the intrinsic IDE ports.  Because of the problems with the need to substitute CDFS drivers and the 6.20 CMOS RAM usage I never succeeded in getting the CD drive to resume operation.

However it was as a direct result of this that I sought out and found RPCEmu so Cosmically Speaking I'm ahead on points.  8-)


Cheerio!

Mike
