Greetings.
I am considering buying a CD-ROM distribution of NetBSD or FreeBSD.  A friend 
of mine has such a CD-ROM (I can't recall its name), but it doesn't support my 
Sound Blaster CD-ROM.  Is there a CD-ROM distribution of Net/FreeBSD that 
supports the Sound Blaster?  If not, would it be feasable to use this CD-ROM 
if I could get a kernel with SB-CDROM support compiled in?

Thanks in advance for your help.
Please post any responses, as my inbound Email link is bunged up.
