Subject:   vmware2 and scsi only hardware?

I've installed the vmware2 port and have run into
a roadblock with installing Windows 98 SE as a guest
OS.  I have scsi only hardware.  No matter want I do,
vmware2 cannot find my scsi cdrom driver to install
win98.

I've searched the emulation and questions mailing list
and read many documents on Vmware, Inc's web site.  But,
I can't/haven't found the magic incantation to get vmware2
to cooperate with my scsi hardware.

I am running FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT with sources from May 5
08:02:14 GMT 2001.  If I configure vmware2 to look for my
cdrom as scsi cdrom I get

Any pointers would be appreciated?
