i'm not exactly sure how to accomplish this... i'm having problems with my cd-rom, which isn't surprising since it's a slim-line without UDMA and probably isn't supported... but... it's eating up time when i'm just remove the device node altogether. every time i remove /dev/acd0 it's just recreated each time i restart. not sure how to permanently remove it without physically removing it from the system. is there anyway to remove the node without removing the iso9660 entry from the kernel?
Neither iso9660 nor the device entry have to do with the probing of your CD drive. Either you make a custom kernel and comment out the appropriate line for the driver or you can configure the kernel at boot time via "UserConfig" not to probe for the device. The first way is straightforward and documented in the handbook. The second way is documented in the loader(8) manpage and e.g. here: http://www.treefort.org/~rpratt/freebsd/31/userconfig.html or for different CD-ROM drives mentioned here: http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/5-STABLE/installation/i386/trouble.html
