>Description:
When booting from CDROM to install FreeBSD 4.1.1, my CDROM drive is not recognised by the kernel ('No CDROM devices found' when I try to choose FreeBSD CRDOM as the install media).
(even if it booted from the CD !)

After installing FreeBSD (via FTP), my CDROM drive is correctly recognised.

I tried various configurations for my IDE devices (swapping primary/secondary and master/slave) to no avail.
(note the the CDROM and Hard disk were never on the same bus)

My hardware is :
Duron on an ASUS A7V.
IBM-DTLA-305020 hard disk
E5SA CDROM
(recognised as :
acd0: CDROM <E5SA CDROM> at ata0-master using PIO4
after install)
(note : I did not use the onboard Promise ATA100 controller)
>How-To-Repeat:
Try installing FreeBSD 4.1.1 from CDROM on a computer with an ASUS A7V mainboard.
