If it worked with other OS's, then it should be deemed workable, and let the jumper alone. If you really care to get meaningful responses, why don't you post what exactly happens when you are trying to install from CD-ROM? I'll try not to forget to let you know when the entire FreeBSD core team has finished fixing installation problem with symptoms "moving jumper on CD-ROM between Master and Slave doesn't help". ;^) Happy new year! -- Arcady Genkin http://www.thpoon.com "'What good is my pity?
