Actually probably you could follow article even if you do not speak Serbian as the language is generic and there are only three important steps you need to do. Step 1 Editing your /boot/loader.conf file with atapicam_load="YES" hw.ata.ata_dma="1" hw.ata.atapi_dma="1" since FreeBSD is using atapicam device to write DVD Step 2 Edit your /etc/devfs.conf with various permission. Most of those are needed for a work station anyway perm /dev/acd0 0666 perm /dev/cd0 0666 # Commonly used by many ports link cd0 cdrom link cd0 dvd link cd0 rdvd link acd0 cdrom link acd0 dvd link acd0 rdvd # Misc other devices perm cdrom 0666 perm dvd 0666 perm rdvd 0666 perm xpt0 0666 perm pass0 0666 Step 3 Edit your /etc/fstab file if you want to use K3b as a normal user since the disk has to be mounted on the mount point which belong to you [pedja@ /usr/home/Pedja]$ more /etc/fstab #These are my options /dev/cd0 /usr/home/Pedja/mnt/cdrom cd9660 rw, noauto 0 0 /dev/acd0 /usr/home/Pedja/mnt/cdrom cd9660 rw, noauto 0 0 You do not need HAL for things to work but is not going to heart. Also read make showinfo /usr/ports/sysutils/k3b Best, Predrag
