I am trying to install FreeBSD 2.1.0 from a Walnut Creek CD-ROM. I am using an NEC 267 IDE CD-ROM drive. The CD-ROM drive is not recognized by the FreeBSD Installation program, however, despite using the installation boot disk with IDE CD-ROM support. It is connected as the only drive on the secondary EIDE channel. Can I get the CD-ROM drive to be recognized? If so, how? I read something about using the -c command at the start of the boot: prompt. If that is relevent then what do I need to type or do to enter the proper configuration settings? Help will be much appreciated, Thanks, -- Steve slacomis@erols.com
