Hi, people--
    I seem to have a slight problem with FreeBSD version 2.2.6 seeing my
cdrom and tape drive. I have an Adaptec AHA-2940UW controller with a
Plextor 12x cdrom and Conner tape drive running off of it. NT sees
everything just fine, but when I boot from the cd to install BSD, it
probes the controller and finds nothing on any of the id's. It gets an
unknown response and says that the board is not responding. On the fifth
id it should find the cdrom, but it passes over it just like everything
else. The cables and termination are just fine. I can get as far as
selecting which media I want to install from, and when I select cdrom,
it simply says it can't find one. If anyone has any ideas, they'd be
appreciated.

Michael Wallis
