I want to install from a Mitsumi 8X CD-ROM. I have a small DOS partition. DOS mounts the CD-ROM just fine at 0x170 and IRQ 15. I have no reported conflicts when I configure the FreeBSD kernel for installation and I am careful to make sure the configuration reflects the 0x170 address and the IRQ of 15 for the CD-ROM. When I go to complete the installation and specify CD-ROM as the media, the installation routine complains that it is unable to find a CD-ROM device. The frosting on the cake is that I've previously installed FreeBSD 2.2.2 on this same machine using the same CD-ROM without a hitch. I'm at a loss as to even know what to check. Any suggestions? Thanks for any input. ... doug _____________________________________________________________________ Doug Jolley mailto://doug@bigwheel.net http://www.bigwheel.net Don't bogart that file, my friend.
