The upgrade CD has now arrived (thanks to CJE), but I lose the
filetypes if I open it on the Windows side, and try as I may, I cannot
get RPCEmu0811/520 to see the host CD drive.

I've set RPCEmu-Settings-CD-ROM to 'Host CD/DVD drive (D:)', I've set
Configure-Discs-CD-ROM drives to 1, I've checked the
AppData-Local-VirtualStore-Program Files-RPCEmu rpc file on the
Windows side and it says 'cd-rom_type = 0' and 'cd-rom enabled = 1'.
I've 'shared' the CD-ROM drive on the Windows side. I've tried
changing the cd-rom_type to 71 and 72 as suggested by Andre Timmermans
http://www.riscos.info/pipermail/rpcemu/2013-March/001947.html but
that doesn't make any difference either: 'CD-ROM Drive not found' is
the consistent response to clicking on the CD-ROM icon in RPCEmu.
