Yes. But a "dummy" driver returning "noErr" doesn't work.
I think it must call at least "AddDrive".
Based on a look at the Driver technote from Apple, it looks like the
driver from the disk is used to access disk blocks in the ROM code,
so
you need a full driver to be able to use the disk. Although you could
leave out the write support in this case, I presume.
I agree.
The good thing: I think what is preventing to booting from a non-
Apple drive is
in the driver. So, by writing a driver, I can boot from my Yamaha CD-
RW drive
and use a CD-RW to develop the driver.
I've a bootable CD without Apple copyrighted materials (all free !!!)
but it cannot boot from non-apple drive.
it is here :
http://vivierlaurent.free.fr/debian-50-m68k-NETINST-1_emile-1.iso
The disk content is from:
http://people.debian.org/~smarenka/d-i/m68k/cds/daily/debian-50-m68k-NETINST-1.iso
And it is only bootable, but cannot install debian because it doesn't
find the bits for testing/m68k.
(Stephen: where can I find them ?)
in the TODO list:
- switch to 32bit mode on boot
- detect the CDROM SCSI ID (currently if it is fixed to 3).
The sources are not in the CVS tree for the moment (coming soon...).

Laurent
