The only CD-ROMs accessible by the AppleCD SC are those that conform to one of
its recognized standards. The available AppleCD SC drivers allow the Macintosh
to read CD-ROMs in these formats:
HFS
High Sierra
ISO 9660
Audio
Mac286 can read any of these formats, but only as Macintosh files since that is
the way the drivers present the files to the Macintosh OS. DOS drivers, which
expect a CD-ROM drive attached to a card in a slot, have no way of
communicating with the AppleCD SC and cannot read the CD-ROMs.
We recommend that you contact the CD-ROM vendor to see if they have versions
available in one of the above formats. This would allow you to access the
files directly without using Mac286 as a fix.
NOTE: Prior to being adopted by the ISO Committee, ISO 9660 was known as
High Sierra. Although some minor changes were made to High Sierra during
the ISO standardizing process, Apple's driver will enable you to read CD-ROM
discs pressed in either format. The two format names are often used
interchangeably.
