Hi,

I recently got a Phillips CD-ROM Subsystem CM205. I had to
reset it to Interrupt 330H and IRQ5 so it doesn't interfere
with COM2: any more, but now all is fine under MS-DOS. It uses
the Phillips/Sony STandard (ISO/IEC 10149)

Now,

can I use this on Jolix? I will be getting R0.1 in September
and would like to get the whole set on CD later regularily
(with X11R5 and GNU and and and...)

Answers by email would be preferred. (I _do_ read this
newsgroup but over 2000 miles access is occasionally difficult
:-)-O) 

thanks, el
