I have a problem running FreeBSD. Ever since I added a Sony CDU-55E ATAPI CD-ROM drive to my computer (a 386dx40, 8Mb RAM, 250 Mb HD) it crashes in two or three minutes. My BSD-HD was fucked up, so I had to install it again, but I can't get past the installation. The (secondary) IDE-controller I use is Mitsumi-made (esp. made for secondary IDE). FreeBSD, however, fails to recognize my CD-drive. Does anybody know what might be wrong? Edwin <edwinm@il.ft.hse.nl>
