Posted this under DOS, and was suggested to post here.
Here is the problem.
A connor HD from MacPlus system. on which have CV and other Thesis data to retrieve.
Has tried the MacOpener route, as well as other file openers without success.
Now as a last hope he is trying to get to this drive via DOS 6.2
Has installed the HD as a SCSI drive through ADAPTEC 2910 PCI card. with DOS drivers.
Has been able to Identify in Autoexec.bat and or Config.sys the Card.
So far he is able to get the IDE HD as C: drive identified. Nothing else on this HD except DOS 6.2
What is the line to use in Autoexec.bat and/or Config.sys to have system recognise the SCSI srive as D:\ drive and the CD rom as E:\ Drive.
I guess that what he would require is the listing of autoexec.bat and config.sys to configure recognition of the two Hard drives, and CDrom drive.
Allowing him to transfer the files from the SCSI drive to IDE and/or CDROM
Your input, assistance is greatly appreciated.

So this drive is from an Apple system and formatted with an Apple OS and you want to read it in DOS? DOS is loaded on it somehow as well? I am not clear on this part.

if you need access scsi drive under dos, you msut install this scsi driver for dos,
like disk,cdrom, edit config.sys, load this driver, dos can access.
