Are you able to boot the FreeBSD installation CD (disk 1) with your NEC
CDROM when it's connected to the 2940?  You should be able to.  Also,
have you ever used that CDROM along with your 2940 on any other OSes?
There are some "SCSI" CDROMs out there that are not a true SCSI device.
I hope that you don't have one of those.  In any event, the SCSI support
in FreeBSD is very good.  You should have no problems running a 2940 and
SCSI CDROM together on your FreeBSD system.
