I have the same CDROM as you, but have never tried to install the system
using it. However, I do have it working correctly for "normal" use. The
jumpers haven't been changed on it; it lives alone on the second controller,
so presumably it is set to master. Here's the kernel config options;
controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 vector wdintr
disk wd0 at wdc0 drive 0
#disk wd1 at wdc0 drive 1
controller wdc1 at isa? port "IO_WD2" bio irq 15 vector wdintr
#disk wd2 at wdc1 drive 0
#disk wd3 at wdc1 drive 1
options ATAPI #Enable ATAPI support for IDE bus
device wcd0 #IDE CD-ROM
