I have a Adaptec 1542CF SCSI controller connected to a NEC CD-84JD CDROM. I'm trying to figure out how to access it (mount?). I've searched through the BSD FAQ (all 10 parts) using the word CDROM and found only oblique references to it. The install notes for 386BSD talks about using the -i switch on mount to accomplish this. When I used this switch (mount -i /dev/cd0 /usr) it told me that the i switch was an invalid option. Can anyone out there lend a hand here? Thanx!
