Hi,

I have an Abit BP6 board that I am trying to install
FreeBSD onto.  I currently have a few operating
systems setup on this machine already and I don't want
to change the hardware around.
I have a DVD drive (HITACHI DVD-ROM GD-5000 0213)
attached to one of the HPT366 IDE ports.  I want to
install FreeBSD 4.0 but it does not recognise the DVD
drive as a CD-rom.
I've pressed 'screenlock' and then used 'page up' to
view the detected hardware while freebsd boots (before
the Kernel config screen).  It is able to find the 2
HPT366 IDE ports.
How do I get the system to allow me to install off the
DVD-rom on the HTP366 port?  If I use FreeBSD 4.1 will
this work?

Thanks
