HELP!!!!!

While installing FreeBSD 2.2.6 I I obtain the following:

The system locks up with the dreaded blue screen of death  on virtual console 1 with "Probing devices, Please wait..."

Diagnostic message on virtual console 2

ATAPI.IO: INVALID COMMAND PHASE, IREASON=0xd8,STATUS=d8<BUSY,READY,OPDONE,IRQ>, ERROR=d8<mchg>



Hardware Configuration:   NEC CD-Rom Drive 273, running as master on secondary IDE controller   1GB HD running as master on primary IDE controller.  System is a Dell Dimension P133.  <All in all a relatively "standard" equipment and configuration, I think>

Additional Diagnostic Information:

1  System will do intial boot from CD Rom player with CD Rom selected as intial boot medium.  Configuration is accomplished, all conflicts are resolved.  System starts reboot  recognizes wcd0 and wcd1 controllers, then freezes.

2.  System will do intial boot from floopy selected as intial boot medium.  Configuration is accomplished, all conflicts are resolved.  System starts reboot  recognizes wcd0 and wcd1 controllers, then freezes

3.  CD-ROM player placed as slave on primary IDE controller.  System will do intial boot from CD Rom with CD Rom selected as intial boot medium.  Configuration is accomplished, all conflicts are resolved.  System starts reboot  recognizes wcd0 and wcd1 controllers, then freezes.

4.   CD-ROM player placed as slave on primary IDE controller.  System will do intial boot from flloppy selected as intial boot medium.  Configuration is accomplished, all conflicts are resolved.  System starts reboot  recognizes wcd0 and wcd1 controllers, then freezes.

Help, what do I do next!  I've gone through the FAQ's, searched the Mailing List archives, and tried deciphering the ATAPIA source code with no luck.  I've run out of ideas.  I'm sure that someone must have encountered this problem somewhere.  As a last resort I could try a DOS installation, but that still leaves the problem of an unrecognized CD ROM player to fix.  I really DON"T want to go back to Linux :(
