The CD drives I am using are: "TAISATAP.SYS" model XM-5702B and the other "Mitsumi atapi FX120T", downloaded drive ide158.exe that is called now MTMCDAI.sys I got the FreeBSD 5.1 at CompUSA for $60. First I downloaded the floppy images from your website but there were the wrong version and so I created the correct version off the CD that provided the utilities. The thing is, once I get to the option for installing from what media and select the first one, that is the CD/DVD it cannot recognize the CD. Then I went to the set up at other screen but still cannot mount the CD. Thanks, George -----Original Message----- From: Marc G.

I'd be curious as to what brands of CDrom/DVDs he's running myself ... I've never had a problem loading up on any CDRom I've ever used, and I thought that CDroms were pretty standard, like floppies, nowadays ..
