Trying install 2.0.1. When booting up from floppy, FreeBSD doesn't what 
to recognize my IDE Panansonic 563 Cdrom. Looking in the doc's it says  
when  at the boot prompt use -c  to configure for special things. Is this 
what I'm suppose to do and I see no examples for Cdrom. 

Can you show me what I have to do to get FreeBSD to recognize my Cdrom?

I very much appreciate your help, thanks.

Jeff
