Initially it boots with the CD-ROM drive, Later when I try to install packages from Menu driven Installation program it says no CD-ROM device found. The most surprising thing is that the Menu driven installation program is being loaded from the CD-ROM drive when the system has been boot, And later it says that "no CD-ROM device found". When it didn't recognize the CD-ROM drive then how did it load the menu driven installtion program in the first place. Could any one let me know how to find a solution for this. I tried with two CDROM drives but the problem reminds the same. Thanks, Bhanu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
