I made another disc but the same problem occurs.
I may try an ordinary ide cd drive setup as a slave.
On an older system with and IDE drive set as master I had the same 
problem, I had to set it as a slave to fix the error.

I am wondering if this error is being worked on by the FreeBSD developers

Thanks
