This is an excerpt from my kernel config, which is working fine for 2
ATAPI CD's on the primary and secondary controllers. (I have SCSI hard
disks)


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

# enabled support for ATAPI CD-ROM's on controller 0 and 1
options		 ATAPI   #Enable ATAPI support for IDE bus
device		wcd0    #IDE CD-ROM
device 		wcd1	#IDE CD-ROM
