When I typed "dmesg | more" I received for my Teac 32x CDROM, which is the secondar master, the following information wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 flags 0xa0ffa0ff on isa wd3: 3020MB (6185088 sectors), 6136 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S wdc1: unit 0 (atapi): <CD-532E-B/1.0A>, removable, accel, ovlap, dma, iordis acd0: drive speed 5512KB/sec, 128KB cache acd0: supported read types: CD-R, CD-RW, CD-DA, packet track acd0: Audio: play, 256 volume levels acd0: Mechanism: ejectable tray acd0: Medium: CD-ROM 120mm data disc loaded, unlocked If you do a df after you get a boot, you will see something like wcd0c being the CDROM. I have my Walnut Creek FreeBSD 3.2 CDROM in the drive. When you selected the installation media, it seems like wcd0c or acd0 should have been the device you selected. It's too late on Friday night for the usual responses.
