Subject: Which scsi CDROM can be used?
Date: Thu, 7 Sep 1995 10:39:47 -0400

I installed ftp version of Plan 9 on my 486ISA + AHA1542B machine, and
still have problem to read CDROM.

I tried three kinds of CDROM drives, Sony CDU-561, Chinon CDS-535
and Chinon CDS-431.  At the booting Plan 9, while in the CGA mode,
it reports us the detected scsi devices, such as

    scsi0: cap 415436  sec 512
    scsi6: cap 322258  sec 2048

in my case.  However, I can get the second line only for CDS-431.

Are there any compatibility list of this kinds?
