I currently bought FreeBSD 2.2.5 + The complete FreeBSD book from Walnut
Creek. I made the boot floppy, I boot just fine.. get too the
"Kernel Configuration Menu" just fine. I go to "Start kernel
configuration in full-screen visual mode". Thats where I think the
problem is. Cause I can get past Kernel Conf. just fine, and start the
Novice installation, etc.. just fine. But when It asks me how I want to
install it, I select CDROM, but then I get a message saying how a CDROM is
not installed.
Here's what I have in Kernel Configuration, below this is what I
accutacly do have in my computer
0 conflicts

Floppy disk controller fdc0

ps/2 mouse (note: when i try to use ps/2 instead of Microsoft bus mouse
I save and quit Kernel configuration, nothing happens.)
Sound Blaster 16 soundcard
I dont know what else todo. I have looked at the hardware installation
document that came with this distrobution of FreeBSD, but I havent seen
anything. Please please have a solution for me.
Thanks,
