Long ago I installed FreeBSD 4.1  (This machine also has Win 98 loaded. I
dual boot between Win 98 and FreeBSD without a problem.)  This box has 2
CD-ROMs installed.  1. TEAC 524-E and a 2. Creative CDRW 4224.  Everything
seems to be working fine with FreeBSD except the problems I experience with
the CD-ROM.  When I try to mount the CD-ROM using these commands:
# mkdir /cdrom  
# mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/acd0c /cdrom
I get an error cd9660: Device not Configured. 

I used this command to find the CD-ROM device:  cat /etc/fstab
The "cat /etc/fstab" command lists only one cd-rom drive, which is:
/dev/acd0c

Another thing that I have tried during boot up, is prior to Unix loading I
"break or pause" the boot up process by press the space bar.  Type in the
command:  boot -c and then look at the config files in visual mode.  As I
look through the Storage active drivers I see my two CD-ROM devices listed
under storage.  Here is the info that it has:
ATA/ATAPI Compatible Disk Controller      Dev-ata0    IRQ- 14   Port-0x1f0
ATA/ATAPI Compatible Disk Controller      Dev-ata1    IRQ- 15   Port-0x170

I then boot in the Unix O/S and search /dev for ata0 and ata1.  They are not
listed under /dev.  

Any help that you could provide would be greatly appreciated.  I will do my
best to provide any further information that you request but obviously I am
a Novice when it comes to Unix. 

Thank you,
Bryan
