It's not going to work, because 3.1 doesn't handle the ATAPI commands.
The only way I know of is to use the LoadV43Module patches that were
on amiga.de , but I don't think they are there anymore....
(I think IDEfix also worked but I don't know how well, I never used it.)
I have the LoadV43Modules archived here, but considering this is a 3.5 list,
AND also considering all the extended ATAPI commands are
installed in the new SetPatch command, you would be better off
just using 3.5, it will work fine then....
