Why is sysinstall saying this? I have a scsi cdrom drive, used successfully to install the os initially. thanks for any hints or pointers to www.freebsd.org pages I have missed in my search. -woody wcarey@cs.uoregon.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
