Thank you for a quick answer. First of all, the device /dev/wcd0c exists, but NOT /dev/wcd0a. curious... When I try to mount, it showed the following message; pc-freebsd# mount_cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom mount_cd9660: /dev/wcd0c : Device not configured Then, I looked in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC, to find the 2 following lines were commented. #option ATAPI #device wcd0 OK, I made them uncommented and rebuilt the kernel. (2 hour job ... :(... Hueee) Wow. I got the message that says wdc0: unit 0 (wd0) : wd0: 534 MB (1094688 sectors), 1086 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S wdc0: unit 1 (atapi): , removable, accel, dma, iordis wcd0: 689Kb/sec, 128Kb cache, audio play, 256 volume levels, ejectable tray wcd0: 120mm data disc loaded, unlocked, lock protected wdc1 not found at 0x170 Then as root, I typed mount_cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom It WORKED !!!!! Yesterday, I repeated the same thing, but at that time, I think I changed too many things in the GENERIC file, and once it's rebuilt, it wouldn't reboot at all. This time, with only the uncommenting the 2 lines gave me back the CDROM. Thanks everyone and hope it helps Jamie as well. -----Original Message----- From: Paul T.
