Yes, the motherboard is Intel DP965LT (which uses P965) with a Core 2 Duo processor.

I boot using 6.2-disc1, but when I try to choose CD/DVD as installation media, the installer says: "No CD/DVD drives found". Is this by chance a newer Core 2 Duo system with a motherboard with an Intel p965 chipset? If so, I think this is a known bug. I know at least one other person who was unable to install FreeBSD 6.2 on a p965 board. The installer does not see the PATA hdd or the ATAPI CD device on the JMicron controller. I'm not sure if it's related, but it sounds similar to this PR I submitted here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=103602 Others might be able to offer workarounds for getting the installer to work (since my DVD drive works for normal things, just not ATAPICAM).
