I forgot to mention that a hard drive is connected as master on the primary 
IDE controller and the CDROM is set as slave. When rebooting wcd0 is not 
found. When I try to mount the CDROM(mount_cd9660) the message is wcd0 is not 
configed. Niether the generic or the custom installation configurations would 
recognize wcd0 as the CDROM.
