As is stated on http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/index.html:
"The latest version of this document is always available from the
FreeBSD World Wide Web server. It may also be downloaded in a variety
of formats and compression options from the FreeBSD FTP server or one
of the numerous mirror sites. You may also want to Search the Handbook."
The download URL is: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc
Or pick your nearest mirror.
>3. How to activate the soundcard?
By reading LINT in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf and probably use device pcm0
>4. How to install the CD rom drive(rewritable).?
By screwing it into your case and search lint if it's supported
depending on type. Also try to search the -hardware mailinglist for your
brand and type. Also install some burn application which support CD-RW's
from /usr/ports.
HTH,
