>Organization:

>Environment:
Not important	
>Description:
OS will install fine, but not boot up when there is a CD-ROM *before* the
hard drive on a secondary IDE chain.  It dies on boot saying that it 
can't mount /dev/wd1 (which is a CD-ROM, not my secondary harddrive)

>How-To-Repeat:
Get 2 HDD's and 2 CD-ROM's (my config). Set up the primary IDE chain as
(1)HDD (2)CD-ROM, and the secondary chain as (1)HDD (2)CD-ROM.  Then
install BSD on the second hard drive /wd3

>Fix:
Put both Hard drives on the Primary IDE chain, and both CD-ROM's on the
secondary chain.  

PS: Had to buy a new chasis case to do this :~(
