Could be that you have one of those CDROMS that needs the sound card connected to it. As the equipment matured it became less dependent on sound card controllers. When they first came packaged together years ago, I understand this was the case. Check the compatibilty database. Alternatively, find a used computer store and drop $10 on another used CDROM. Just don't pick one that is labeled Creative Labs or you may be back to square one. -----Original Message----- From: Stu and Kazza [SMTP:dodgybros@acenet.net.au] Sent: Wednesday, October 25, 2000 9:08 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Creative ATAPI CDROM I am trying to install FreeBSD using a CDROM. The CDROM is a Creative Quad Speed - CD420E and it is setup as the slave (the hard drive is the master). Sysinstall simply does not not recognize the CDROM. There are two devices that were 'probed' which are the two ATAPI controllers. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.....
