I am trying to install a copy of version 2.0 BSDi on a compaq 
pentium machine it has an IDE HardDrive in it but when setup 
gets that far it asks 
what is your cd rom name [mcd0]:
of course mine is not a mitsumi drive nor is it a scsi
so no prize 

question 1: Does bsdi 2.01 have ide cdrom support
question 2: Is there another way ??
