  During the install process, after configuring the target drive, and after selecting installation media, the following message is displayed:  "The disc in your drive looks more like an Audio disc than a FreeBSD release."  This refers to the same FreeBSD disc from which the machine was booted.    
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to install FreeBSD using the EIDE CDROM drive (Creative 52X).
>Fix:
  Install using your SCSI CDROM(R/W) if you have one!

 Anyway which CD-ROM disc (not drive) did you use for installation?
 
 I doubt if your CD-ROM drive doesn't work, or CD-ROM you've got is
 broken.  Do you verify that drive and/or CD-ROM is not broken?

Responsible-Changed-Why:  
EIDE or ATA? :-) 

This could be the same model of Creative 52x speed drive that I couldn't 
get working either.  It turned out that the drive didn't implement 
the ATA spec properly (BIG_READ failed, I think).  I promised to send 
the drive to Soren to play with, but never got around to it. 

Anyway, if this is the same story, maybe the originator can send a  
drive to Soren to test? :-)

 I forgot to mention that Soren will probably want the exact model of the
 drive, available from this command:
 
 	dmesg | grep ^acd
 
 Ciao,

 The exact CD Drive (according to Linux Mandrake dmesg) is "CREATIVE
 CD5233E-CF".
 
 As I stated previously, this is a rather curious problem in that the install
 disc boots and functions as advertised until it comes time to install the
 packages, then the install program thinks that the CD is a music CD instead
 of a FreeBSD distribution CD.  This doesn't happen when I install from my HP
 SCSI CD Writer on the same machine.  I've tried disabling the DMA function
 in the BIOS and used PIO mode with the same result.  I have another, older,
 machine with the same model CDROM drive and I'll swap those out when I can
 and see what result I get then.
 
 Thanks,
 Al Turner

 Hello Sheldon,
     I've solved this problem by switching CDROM drives, but have not figured
 out why the previous drive would work with two versions of Linux, and two
 versions of Windoze, but not FreeBSD.
     If it's any help, here are the descriptions of the of the drives
 involved:
 Drive that didn't work for installation:  Creative CD5233E-CF S/N A12131633
 (Packaged cosumer kit)
 Drive that did work:  Creative CD5233E (no suffix) S/N A01345681 (OEM
 version bought bare)
 The suffix is not printed on the case, just shows up on dmesg.  The only
 other apparent difference is that the OEM drive is about 1.25 inches shorter
 than the drive that didn't work.
 
 I suppose you can mark this "case closed"!
 
 Thanks,
 Al Turner
