When I got it (from a friend), it had dos and win 3.1 installed, and the CD-ROM drive worked fine. I installed freebsd 2.2.7-Release from a CD-ROM, and everything went just fine. After the installation (since DOS and Win 3.1 is gone, I formated the drive), I can't get the CD-ROM drive to work. it's an old 2X drive. the only thin I can think of that would make a difference is that DOS was there the first time, but I don't know why that would make any difference because I booted from a floppy. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks. -- My Waterskiing Pages (Barefoot & Wakeboarding): http://waterski.pharamond.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
