Subject:   jpsnap -CURRENT ISO's can't read from /dev/acd0c

I've been confined to Rogers@Home internet access for a few days now,
and today I was going to get my machine running -CURRENT. So after
trying an FTP install which failed miserably as the box just scans for
DHCP servers endlessly, I decided to go with some of the jpsnap
snapshots I had downloaded previously (26 and 28 December). Now
everything goes fine right until they want to read from the CD, at which
point some messages pop up about not being able to read /dev/acd0c from
/dist (or something like that, can't for the life of me remember at the
moment) because the device does not exist. 

A wild guess tells me this might have something to do with devfs, but I
don't know. If anyone knows how to get around ths (or for that matter,
if anyone has wrestled down DHCP *installs* with Rogers@Home), I'd
appreciate it.

Please cc me on the reply. Thanks.
