Hi Rich,
I've tested scsi support and it doesn't work. It shows me nothing of
devices in the Terminal. I've set the env to IOCompactDiscServices &
IODVDServices. In your regualr version I get with DVDSevices these 16
times devices, but with the test I get nothing. :o(
greets Jens

Is it me or is it quiet 'round here lately?
Anyway, if anybody wants to test SCSI support on OS X, try this one: http://www.rcdrummond.net/uae/test/uae_osx_test.bz2
There are some possible pitfalls, due to some pecularities of OS X. ;-)
1) It'll only work with writeable devices. This is a limitation of the OS X
kernel. (It may be possible to write a real SCSI emulation to get around this
problem, but it's not something I have time to look at right now.)
2) It'll only support one drive at the moment. (libscg won't scan for devices
on OS X.)
3) You have to start UAE with no CD loaded in the drive. Otherwise Finder gets
exclusive access to the CD and won't share with UAE. :-( The other option is
to kill the automount daemon, so that Finder won't automatically mount discs.
4) You may have to set the env variable UAE_SCSI_DEVICE to tell UAE where to
find your drive.
In bash, if you have a CD writer do:
export UAE_SCSI_DEVICE=IOCompactDiscServices/0
if you have a DVD writer (or combo drive) do:
export UAE_SCSI_DEVICE=IODVDServices/0
If you use csh (I think this is the default in 10.2), use the setenv command
instead. E.g.
setenv UAE_SCSI_DEVICE IOCompactDiscServices/0
Have fun.
Cheers, Rich
