After some wailing and gnashing of teeth got freebsd 2.2.2 up and
running. Thanks to those who helped. Have moved from that to
modification of kernel for cdrom support. Edited kernel.generic and left
in atapi cdrom support options. On bootup cdrom is probed but media type
not recognized. Also left in options CD9660.

What is the proper syntax to mount cdrom from command line?
(have looked at man mount and its a little cryptic for unix newbie)

Should the lines in the generic kernel work "as is" for an atapi type
cdrom?

>From what I've read so far if installation or mounting is successful
files on cdrom will be available in cdrom dir in root?

Thanks again for the support and the work in creating this alternative
to mickey soft
dependence!

Paul
