Subject:   Installing from IDE AT-API CD-ROM

I have a system with an AT-API CD drive -- no SCSI.
How do I install FreeBSD 2.1 from this drive?

On other machines, in the past, I've installed from
a SCSI CD and then config'd the kernel, after
installation, to recognise the IDE CD drive (removed
refs to wd1, wd2 in the config file).

Can I install straight from an IDE CD drive?  For
instance, can I do a "kernel -c" boot and have it
recognise the drive that way?

Any info/pointers much appreciated.
