Try to mount the cdrom and see if you get a "Device not configured"
error.
If you got it, you need to do the following

"Copy the new MAKEDEV file to your /dev directory and do a MAKEDEV all
You are still using the old MAKEDEV!

cp /usr/src/etc/MAKEDEV /dev
cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV all
"
thanks to Mark Pearce for this solution and sorry I Copy this literaly.
