After partitioning the disk, you must also choose "Create Logical Drive" to assign a DOS
drive letter to the partition. Then, exit and re-boot the system.
4.5 Installing the CD-ROM Driver
TRMCD.SYS is the driver for CD-ROM and CD-Changer devices. To enable a CD-ROM
under DOS, you will also need MSCDEX.EXE, which is supplied with MS-DOS 6.0 or
higher. This program can be acquired from Microsoft separately.
1. Add a line after the ASPI driver,
DEVICE = C:\ASPI\ASPI.SYS
DEVICE = C:\ASPI\TRMCD.SYS /d:cdrom0
Note 1:
For Trantor's Music Box, you have to add one more option as follows:
DEVICE= C:\ASPI\TRMCD.SYS /d:cdrom0 /mb
Note 2:
If your CD-ROM is compatible with another manufacturer and not recognized,
you have to add one more option /t:XXX, XXX: Short for compatible
manufacturer name. For example: If your DEC CD-ROM CDU-541 is compatible
with the SONY CDU-541 and not recognized by the previous command, you can
try to add the following option:
DEVICE= C:\ASPI\TRMCD.SYS /d:cdrom0 /t:SON
2. Add a line in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
C:\DOS\MSCDEX.EXE /d:cdrom0 /m:12
Note:
In the above example, C:\DOS is the directory containing the file
MSCDEX.EXE.
