That is the same problem I am experiencing.  You could try to see if your 
CD-ROM is a Sony, Mitsumi, or Matsushita/Panasonic compatible type.  If 
it is, then there are drivers for that - take a look at the LINT file in 
/sys/i386/conf for the exact name for them.

My CD-ROM is a CD200 model, and I don't think it's supported by FreeBSD, 
so I probably will have to be contented with not having one for the moment.
