Thanks, that sort of works. Based on the cdrom.bat commands, this
snippet from my current autoexec.bat works:
=======================
REM (some commands)
SHSUCDX /QQ /D3
LH SHSUCDHD /QQ /F:FDBOOTCD.ISO
REM (some commands)
REM DEVLOAD /H /Q %dosdir%\BIN\UIDE.SYS /H /D:FDCD0001 /S5
DEVLOAD /H /Q %dosdir%\BIN\XCDROM.SYS /H /D:FDCD0001
SHSUCDX /QQ /~ /D:?SHSU-CDR,D /D:?SHSU-CDH,D /D:?FDCD0001,D
/D:?FDCD0002,D /D:?FDCD0003,D
SHSUCDX /QQ /U
DEVLOAD /Q /H C:\FDOS\BIN\XCDROM.SYS /D:FDCD0001 /H
SHSUCDX /D:FDCD0001,D /Q
=======================
With this, I can access the cdrom as E: (not D:).
But I have not been able to merge the last 5 command into just 2 or 3.
Among many attempts, I think I tried just running the last 3 of the 5
and that failed as before. What am I not seeing?

One of these two should work. These are batch files so rename them
accordingly.

Thanks for the idea and an interesting web page, but this is a
plain old IDE CD-ROM.

If you have a AHCI/SATA CD/DVD drive, try downloading the
FreeDOS - SATA for Ghost disk here, extract the AHCI.SYS
driver and use the following configuration.

I tried updating to the latest uide.sys from

I get the same error.
I also get the same error with the last version of
xcdrom.sys.
Next-best solutions?
