Circumstances have finally settled the question of whether we could
hope to support the Noveca RAP//CD product. The answer, as far as I
am concerned, is no.
I worked on the thing a few months ago, but ran into many dead-ends
(mainly because it just won't work under the DOS emulator). Just
before christmas I got some anonymous mail with some clues about
how it works. So, I've spent much of the last week trying to talk
to my RAP//CD. I never got very far. Now, it doesn't even work in
DOS anymore. You may recall that the Noveca kit had previously
destroyed one of my CD drives. This time the drive survived, but the
adapter is toast.
I got mine only weeks before the company went bankrupt, so I guess
they were shipping really bad product at that point.
I'm sorry, I know that there are many Linux users that have these
things and would like to use it, but my efforts have failed.
