Hi,

I wanted to install for the first time FreeBSD from CDROM. I created a
CD with the ElTorito extension from the freebsd-homepage (RELEASE 4.0
iso-image).

I have a ATAPI CDROM as secondary disk on my second IDE
controller. Booting from this device worked without problems. I could
partition my disk and select what I wanted to install. Then I got a
problem!

Choosing the installation source 'CDROM', I got a message: NO
CDROM-DEVICE found. Look into the hardware compatibility ....

Compatibility is there, and I didn't disable any modules when
installing. I read again through the documentation but there hasn't been
any point what to do about this.

Hope anybody can help me, thanks in advance,


Heiko Klein
