Does anyone know what the patch for the Apple CD/DVD Driver 1.4.8 (or higher) should 
now
be?

I noted that when I opened a copy of my Apple CD/DVD Driver 1.4.8 in ResEdit 2.1.3, 
that
things were not on the Rows listed in his examples at ResEdit (was located at:
<http://www.ResExcellence.com/12-21-98.shtml>; Now is located at:
<http://www.ResExcellence.com/hack_html_99/12-21-98.shtml>, so Apple has made some
changes to the SCSI portion of the final version(s) of the Traditional Mac OS CD/DVD
Driver?

While I can find some similar (but not the same) HEX patterns in the Driver, I'm not
certain which ones to modify. Do you know anyone that
has adapted the Apple CD/DVD Driver 1.4.8 with a variation of Tony Saxton's Apple 
CD/DVD
Driver edit? And if so, have they posted the
information of what they did anywhere, or do you know how to contact them?  If it 
works,
does the modified Apple CD/DVD Driver 1.4.8 then also work under Mac OS 8.6 through 
9.1?
Curious to find out...

Anthony Saxton dropped me a line regarding his edit to Modify Apple's CD/DVD drivers to
mount third party drives.

The hack for 1.3.5 and 1.4.3 are both identical to version 1.3.1. Apple has made no
changes to the SCSI portion of the CD driver since version1.3.1.

Also, it might be a good idea to add a note that the Driver ID 33 should not be edited.
It is the driver for the ATAPI (IDE) drives and already works with all IDE drives that
it possibly could. There are no checks there for Apple ROMs. I'm telling you this
because I received an email from a user with a DVD drive complaining that his DVD 
didn't
work anymore. This was because he had edited both drivers.
