Hi, I would like to install freebsd to evaluate it. I had hoped to install it on a spare box. Unfortunately it has an old cdrom drive off of a sound blaster card. Although the documentation implies that the matcd driver is included on the boot floppies, it is not offered as a option. Is it still available on a floppy boot image for freebsd 4.0? Or, is it really there and I am just not understanding how to select it? I am reasonably confident with unix/linux since kernel 1.1.59 circa 1995 and hardware. Sorry to trouble you with an "old hardware" issue, but I thought I would contact you to see if there was a simple solution to this problem.
