Regrettably, I ran into another problem: apparently the CD I burned was
roughed up too badly for the installation to complete. It died while
trying to install UDVD2, due to a read error. And that was my last
CD-R. So I'll have to go buy some more and make a new one.

It's amazing to me that so many people still use 486s with FreeDOS.
Those must've been built like tanks. (Mine, sadly, is disconnected.)
It has a 270 MB hard drive, a floppy drive, and a CD drive.
The CD drive is connected through my sound card, a Sound Blaster Pro 2.
The installer can't seem to find my CD drive. How can I fix this?
I see you've already figured this out (found drivers), but just for
future reference for others:

Booting from CD-ROM
Smart BootManager supports booting from almost all kinds of IDE ATAPI
CD-ROM, including PCMCIA CD-ROMs. You can let BIOS boot from C: only
and assign a password for it, then you can boot from CD-ROM with Smart
BootManager easily, while other guy couldn't. If you have a Laptop
computer with a special PCMCIA CD-ROM which BIOS does not support
booting from, Smart BootManager can help you make it easy!
