Hello All

Running 2.2-960501-SNAP I can not mount CD-ROM:
# mount_cd9660 -r /dev/wcd0c /cdrom 
# mount_cd9660: /dev/wcd0c: device not configured

Trying also: mount -t cd9660 -r /dev/wcd0c /cdrom 
... same message.
Trying to make the device by
# cd /dev
# ./MAKEDEV wcd0
doesn't change anything.

I have this configuration in kernel
>...
> options ATAPI 
> device wcd0 #IDE CD-ROM
>...

Looking at /var/log/messages the device apparently is not probed during 
booting. 
 Could someone tell me how to mount this drive ?

I didn't have such kind of problems with FreeBSD 2.1. which I installed about 
three months ago from a CD-ROM.  The reason I changed 
to 2.2-960501-SNAP is that X was keeping crashing my keyboard. I e-mailed to 
bugs@FreeBSD.org one week ago  - no answer yet - 
I don't know if switching to 2.2-960501-SNAP was for better or worse.

Thank you in advance
