First, if you installed from a CD, then it's probably 2.1.5 (AFAIK, 2.1.6 
is not on CDs yet). What you need to do is rebuilde your kernel with the 
following two lines in the configuration file:

options	ATAPI
device wcd0

You'll also need to do
cd /dev
./MAKEDEV wcd0

as root. Look in the Handbook about how to rebuild the kernel.
