The VMWare guest OS page for FreeBSD (http://www.vmware.com/support/technotesfreebsd.html) states, --- One caveat with all versions of FreeBSD is that there is a problem probing for the CD-ROM device wdc1; FreeBSD sends an illegal ATAPI command to the IDE controller and ignores the error status reply. This results in approximately a 1 minute delay each time the system boots. --- Is this true?
