39 How do I read Mac CD-ROMs?

    
A:   Get aminet:/disk/cdrom/AmiCDROM-1.15.lha, unarchive it, use the
     following options in the installer...
	Device			cd.device
	Unit			0.
	Memory options		Use any memory available.
	Other options		Use Rock Ridge names, if possible.
				Use trackdisk.device instead of SCSI-direct.
	Map filenames		Don't map filenames.
	General buffers		5.
	Read() buffers		5.
	Diskchange time		3.
	CD-DA icon command	None.
	CD-DA icon position 	Workbench chooses.
	Configure Mac options	Yes.
	Mac options		Convert Mac characters to Amiga characters.
				Examine CD first for a HFS partition.
	Data fork extension	Leave empty.
	Rsrc fork extension	Leave empty.
	AmigaDOS device name	CD1:, MAC0:, whatever you like.
	Automount		Yes: Mac CDs are recongnised all the time.
				No: You must click on the Storage/DOSDrivers/
				CD1 (or whatever) icon before using Mac CDs.

     Two icons will appear for each CD you insert - one is the CD32/CDTV/PC
     partition and the other is the Mac partition. If there is no Mac
     partition then both icons will be the same CD32/CDTV/PC partition.
