Hello,

I am new to this group and the program FreeBSD. I just bought the CD-Rom from 
Walnut Creek of 2.0.5 and am having trouble installing it. I realize that it 
only works with certain types according to the back of the case. I have a 
Wearnes Technolgy "Beethoven" drive cdd-110. Does anyone know if there is a 
way to get it to accept this? I really don't want to have to change the cd 
drive right now [getting ready to do a motherboard upgrade first] Please email 
any suggestions [hopefully positive] to me. Thanks for the help

Tim
