This may not be a FreeBSD problem - it could have somthing to do with the motherboard or it's BIOS. I was installing FreeBSD on a new machine with a A7V266-E yesterday, and I couldn't even boot off the first FreeBSD install CD. I switched the new 52x IDE CDROM drive out, switched an old 4x I had lying around back in, and the machine booted off the CD and allowed me to do the install with no problems. After switching the new drive back in, I couldn't mount the any CDs in the drive. It's unlikely that we have the same CDROM drive, so I assume it's the mobo or the BIOS. Try using an older drive if you have one spare, or see if there's an update for the BIOS. HTH, Mike. -- Mike Gratton <mike@vee.net> "Every motive escalate."
