I have a very old Sony (non-scsi) CDROM I want to use on a freeBSD PC.
But I can't figure out how to configure it in the kernel!  It has its
own 8-bit interface card CDC-240 that uses IRQ 5, DMA 2, I/O 340.

I've tried these two:

device scd0 at isa? port 0x340 bio
device wcd0

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Peter
