Finally got my PC64 up to 5.2.1-RELEASE, but the ATA cdrom doesn't want 
to work.  The chipset and ata ports are recognised by the kernel at boot 
time:

ata0 at port 0x3f6,0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa0
ata0: interrupting at ISA irq 14
ata0: [MPSAFE]
ata1 at port 0x376,0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa0
ata1: interrupting at ISA irq 15
ata1: [MPSAFE]

but there is nothing in /dev, and the drive is known good.

Any thoughts?

cheers,
Rob
