Is your CD drive really at 0x230?  Mine on my Packard Bell came at
0x340, so I've always used 0x340 rather than change the card.  You
should check this out using a configuration tool in DOS or Windows 95,
if possible.

If the drive is at 0x340, you'll want this line instead:

controller	matcd0	at isa? port 0x340 bio
