I am trying to install FREEBSD from a SoundBlaster Pro (Panasonic) CD
drive connected to a SoundBlaster Pro audio card.. Auto probe does not
recognize the drive. I have the drive set to 0x240 i/o and irq 5. I
have tried forcing the settings with :boot -c from a floppy (port
matcd0 0x240 irq 5) and still doesn't recognize it. Anyone use this
drive with any success? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
