Here is the output of the command: 'grep acd0 /var/run/dmesg.boot' acd0: CDROM at ata0-slave PIO4 Thanks. PS: Kent, your suggestion is what I have already tried ...I've tried to 'umount /cdrom' it doesn't do anything.... since BSD cannot find it... when I go in /dev I do not see /cdrom there is only acd0, However when I try mkdir cdrom under /dev it says it already exists...? ls -a doesn't show anything. The intelligence behind the O/S is what amazes me...lol >From: Toomas Aas >To: Michael Neeff >CC: questions@freebsd.org >Subject: Re: Can't play CD / mount CDROM >Date: Mon, 02 May 2005 23:23:13 +0300 > >Hi Michael! > >I was hoping someone can give you a more definite answer, but it seems >no-one knowledgeable has responded, so here are my comments, worth exactly >what you paid for them :) > >>I've been trying since the past couple of days to get my sound back... it >>all started when I followed the steps from the manual in setting up >>statically sound drivers for my old Compaq DeskPro EN series...for FreeBSD >>5.3.
