I have purchased Freebsd current release but my CD drive is not supported.
It is a Gateway 2000 IDE CD-ROM, interface IDE ATAPI 1.2.

I know that the next release of FreeBSD will support this drive.
Can I reconfigure my kernel with the next release of FreeBSD by obtaining
the snapshot.

Please help:)
