I read all the documentation. BTW, there isn't that much in the docs to try.
It's always the same: Cannot find CD/DVD devices...
Other ideas? Could it be an IRQ conflict or whatever in loader.conf?

the installation, you have to choose Installation Media. I choose
the first option, 'install from a CD/DVD', but get the message Cannot
find CD/DVD devices... (or something like that). But I can boot from
the CD (it's a Mitsumi ATAPI CD-ROM, not a DVD). The module cd9660
seems to be loaded. When I choose Floppy... in the Installation
Media menu, I also get the message Cannot find floppy devices... So,
FreeBSD recognizes the CD-ROM drive, but it seems to forget those
devices at a certain point. I was able, years ago, to install FreeBSD
3.2.
There are several steps mentioned in the errata which you should
probably try:
