  I just got the FreeBSD CDROM (December 1993).  But I can't get FreeBSD
to acknowledge that I've got a CDROM drive.  My system is a
Gateway 2000 4DX2-66V with a Mitsumi DoubleSpeed CDROM.  I've got a
WD Caviar 424 Meg HD (IDE), so I'm using the CDINS_AH.FLP boot image.  

  My DOS CDROM driver looks like this:
DEVICE=C:\G2KAUDIO\MTMCDAE.SYS /D:MVCD001 /M:64 /A:0 /I:11 /P:340 /T:6 /X
which means that my drive is at address 340, IRQ 11, DMA 6.

  Am I having problems with this because of jumper settings or is my drive
incompatible?
