Hello, 2.2.6 has problems with using ATAPI CDROMs I had to update manually atapi.c and and atapi.h in the sources of the kernel to get it going smoothly. I would suggest to install 2.2.6 from a FAT partition, disable the second WDC interface (on which you connect the CD-ROM) and then upgrade your sources via cvsup to "make world" with a newer version of FreeBSD (cvsup and make world are covered in the handbook).
