The kernel sources are part of the dist set on the CD.  If you are
running an older version of FreeBSD (2.1 or earlier?), there should be
a file on the second CD called kernel.atapi which has the ATAPI
support built in.  

I used that to get the CD going, then got the sources off the CD from
inside FreeBSD and built a custom kernel.

Remember, before you install a new dist, remember to back up your /etc
files, as some (all) files will be replaced.
