It seems to be a problem only on Dell E521/C521 Dimension models. Here are some of the places that I found talking about the same errors I'm having : ttp://blog.caraldi.com/jbq/2006/11/30/dont-buy-the-dell-e521-and-c521-computers/ http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=113130 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/106960 http://www.nabble.com/bin-40260-%22No-cd-dvd-devices-found!%22-t4025257.html http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/40260 Even in NetBSD I still have the same problem.
