I've only got the one drive in their. I think there is a setup issue with the drive. The message MODE_SENSE_BIG timeout occurs on acd0 when the installation program starts. Does this ring any bells with anyone?

Thanks for the help so far.

Hi FreeBSD Folks,

I'm installing FreeBSD and, although the installation can boot from the
CD, when I select a CD/DVD as the installation source, it says it can't
find the CD. Obviously, the BIOS can read the CD because it booted from
it, but apparently FreeBSD seems to be unable to see it.



I had this too. In my case there were 2 drives and they were swapped, i.e. the first one was acd1, and the second one acd0.
I tried for several hours with both drives and had already started to pull my hair out when I found the solution.
