I'm having a problem getting the Walnut Creek FreeBSD 3.3 to recognize my ATAPI (Ide) 50X cdrom. I can start the install by directly booting the cdrom but during the installation just after package selection and partitioning it asks where you want to start the install from,??? I select the cdrom, then I'm told that one has not been detected?????? Kinda weird considering that very cdrom drive is where it started intallation from. Any ideas on this one would be appreciated, I have tried the hardware faqs and the newsgroups but no luck as yet. I have used various Linux distributions for two years but have not seen this problem before. Have registered product............ doug - alexr@linux.ca To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
