RE: Advice for a new Indy User
Lovely read Smile cool to hear from someone who’s lived through the life and death of this OS. Despite its shortcomings, I find it awesome to use a relatively powerful pc compared to my 66mhz DX2. I’d like to learn some C so I can do some era appropriate coding, maybe even port a game or two.

On another note, I’m having an issue regard CD’s. Long story short, I put a cd image (CD4.iso) on my ZuluScsi, yet clicking on the CDROM icon shows a blank directory. It mounts fine on Windows. I check the Zulu logs and it says the disk has a block size of 2048. Ok, so I force the image to 512 bytes by renaming it (CD4_512.iso) and I got a PANIC error (vfs_mountroot: no root found) upon resetting the pc, which I don’t know if it’s related to the disk or not. For anyone curious, the Zulu log says:

SCSI ID: 4, BlockSize: 512, Type: 2, Quirks:0, Size: 240748kB, Removable
