Either that or I am just missing something here. I was told to refer to /i386/isa/sound/sound.doc.

In my kernel file I have the following: > > #SCSI Controllers > controller nca0 at isa? port 0x1f88 bio irq 10 (i also tried controller nca0 at isa? port 0x1f88 bio irq 10 vector ncaintr) The nca driver isn't supported in 3.0 and newer. (and isn't likely to be supported unless someone with hardware decides to port the driver) Sorry. If you want to use your CDROM drive, you'll have to get a support SCSI controller. Or you can go back to 2.2.8 -- the nca driver last worked in that release.
