That's strange, I have a Matshita CR-504 ST22 CD-Rom working here with 
no problems. Does it get detected when you boot the installation floppy? 
(This is a SCSI device - are we talking about the same thing here?)

Anyway, to install from a DOS hard disk, copy the files off the CD. At
a minimum, you'll need the bin.?? files, and the ssys.??, manpages.?? and
info.?? are strongly recommended.

Note you must keep the directory structure, something like

c:\freebsd\bin
c:\freebsd\src
c:\freebsd\manpages
c:\freebsd\info
