 No CD/DVD devices found
 
 while searching on the web I found one mail which mentioned problems
 with FreeBSD and ATA, ATAPI.
 The workaround provided was where in has to
 set hw.ata.ata_dma=1
 set hw.ata.atapi_dma=1

 Need help in getting around this problem

4.9 will probably work better for you.

Installation : CD drive not detected

Hi all,
I am trying to install the FreeBSD 4.8 Release on a i386 m/c.
I have burnt the iso images onto a CD.

My problem
The m/c boots uncompressing the kernel and takes me thru the
menu. While choosing the installation Media I get the message
No CD/DVD devices found

while searching on the web I found one mail which mentioned problems
with FreeBSD and ATA, ATAPI.
The workaround provided was where in has to
set hw.ata.ata_dma=1
set hw.ata.atapi_dma=1

but  still I could not choose the CD as the installation media?

Need help in getting around this problem
