When FreeBSD booted, it was recognized by the system (matcd0a :[0] appears in fstab), and I was able to load the Developer's subset from :[0] the CD during the installation process. If it really is an IDE drive, then matcd0a is *not* the driver and it should not have detected anything. The wcd driver is used for IDE drives. If the model of you drive is CR562 or CR563 then it is *not* a IDE drive, but is a proprietary Panasonic interface. Once you identify what hardware you really have, we can probably solve any problems that remain.
