Description Laura Michaels 2001-10-25 19:50:00 UTC

I tried using the auto-boot feature of the CD installation disks on version 4.3 and on some previous versions I own.  I had one SCSI CD installed when I first put FreeBSD on my machine.  When I tried to upgrade to 4.3, I now have 2 SCSI CDs (actually both CD-R drives) installed on my machine.  The disk will not self-boot with two CD drives connected.  It works fine when I disconnect one CD drive.  It would nice to be able to self-boot the FreeBSD disk for upgrades or installs without having to disconnect a CD drive every time I wish to do so.

How-To-Repeat: See description.
