>Description:
During install the kernel doesn't detect the matcd0 device.
Problem Report i386/29792 has the same problem (under 4.3). Kris Kennaway said:
"Unfortunately I doubt any of the committers have a matcd device any
 more to test this.  If it's not user error, or a generic bug in
 FreeBSD which effects other devices, I don't think there's much chance
 of this getting fixed."
But under 4.4 in HARDWARE.TXT the device is still said to be suported:
"The following CD-ROM type systems are supported at this time:
[...]
* Matsushita/Panasonic (Creative SoundBlaster) proprietary interface
  (562/563 models) (matcd(4))"
So it should be removed or fixed...
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot from install floppies and go into the "visual config" thing
