SunPCi User's Guide

Windows 95 CD-ROM Drives

You can connect to CD-ROM drives from within the SunPCi program to access DOS and Windows 95 software. The CD-ROM must be in the High Sierra File System (HSFS) format (which includes most, but not all, commercially sold CDs), and it can only be accessed by creating a SunPCi extended drive. The SunPCi software does not support Microsoft CD-ROM extensions.

This default drive mapping does not support long file names for use with Windows 95. To install software from a CD that requires long file names, map your CD-ROM drive to another drive letter, such as Z:, using Windows Explorer. For instructions on how to do this, refer to Accessing Solaris Files and CD-ROMs From Windows 95.


Note –

If you have Solaris Volume Manager enabled, the default drive mapping for your CD-ROM drive is R:\cdrom\cdrom0.
