I just got my freebsd 2.2.1 cd and I am trying to do a fresh install.  I
have booted from floppy but it does not seem to find my cdrom drive -- even
though wcd0 is listed on the boot probe.   I did not think that this was
out of the ordinary. I figured that I was going to have to seek
alternatives so I pulled the floppy and rebooted the machine.  The PC
proceeded to boot into the install program again, from the CD!  Still
however when I told it that I wanted to install from the CD media source it
told me that it could not find the cd.  --How can this be when it just
booted from it???

Advice?  --ja
