: Has anyone tried to boot a Panasonic CR562 CD-ROM on a SoundBlaster
16 interfaceusing 2.1.5R? I have been trying for ages with no
luck, both with the GENERIC kernel and a custom one. I was under
the impression from the freeBSD website docs that matcdc0 was the
driver/controller to use. What gives? Help please.
What do you mean "boot" ? I have installed FreeBSD with a Panasonic CR563 on an
SB16 several times. Works just fine. You may have to adjust the I/O address (boot -c)
depending on where you put it. Yes, matcd0 is the right name.
