dmesg says:

 ahc0 <Adaptec 2940 Ultra SCSI host adapter> rev 0 int a irq 3 on pci0:16
 ahc0: aic7880 Wide Channel, SCSI Id=7, 16 SCBs

the cdrom that it apparently can't deal with is a Teac 56S.  I remember
that I tried to install 2.2.2 on this machine and the cdrom would boot,
but then lock up after the "Unexpected busfree" messages.

BTW, sd1 is the boot drive for FBSD, if that makes any difference.
