I am wondering if I get a CD-Rom drive for my GS, what I could do with it. How do I get files onto a CD that the GS can read? I do not own a MAC, just a PC with a burner. Is this at all possible? It would be great to get my library all copied to a CD for easy access.... Paul
I have a CD drive on my IIgs. It can read PC and Mac CDs with no difficulty.If your PC has a SCSI card, then with the right software you should be able to also backup your IIgs hard drive, assuming it's SCSI. Using Toast on a Mac, I'd have the IIgs hard drive hooked up to it's SCSI card but left off until after booting. Then I'd turn it on and of course it wouldn't be recognized but Toast would know it was there and would do a "Device Copy" onto a CD and produce a partitioned ProDOS CD which was bootable on the IIgs.
