To whom it may concern,
    I am attempting to install FreeBSD (1st time) onto my system.  I am using "The Complete FreeBSD" book by Greg Lehey to walk me through the process.  Everything was going great until it asked me how I wanted to install FreeBSD on my system.  When I selected CD-ROM, it said that no CD-ROM was found (even though I had used a boot CD-ROM to get this far).  The book gives several suggestions, and e-mailing you for help is the last option.  Well here I am.  I have a SCSI CD-ROM (Toshiba XM-6401TA) on SCSI ID#4.  Any suggestions as to what I can do to solve this problem?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
A. Lewis
