The Poweredge has 1 SCSI disk 1 IDE CD-ROM drive (it's a CDU701 - for what it's worth) 1 set of 3.1-RELEASE from Walnut Creek Managed to boot off CD 1 of the distribution from the BIOS, but 'BSD can't see the CD-ROM drive afterwards. Managed to complete an install via an NFS-mounted CD-ROM, but again, 'BSD can't see the CD-ROM. Kernel sees wdc0 OK. The manual claims the CD-ROM is ATAPI compliant. The CD-ROM is the master device on wcd0. I'm wondering what is going wrong. Would it make sense to put an IDE hard disk on the same bus? Anyone else had/solved this particular problem? TIA, Adam.
