 This is still broken in FreeBSD 4.10.  The problem is also in the
 Compaq Professional Workstation 2000 and Professional Workstation
 6000.  I suspect that all 3 Professional Workstations use the same
 chipset for their IDE controller.
 
 In searching the FreeBSD newsgroup, IDE cdrom has been broken on
 these PC's ever since the wd driver was replaced.  Previously
 the wd driver in version 3.X did work on these.  I have tried 
 different CDROM's in these systems over the years.  Fortunately
 all these workstations shipped with SCSI drives as standard from
 the factory.
 
 See PR's  i386/63098  and bin/44188  they are the same problem.
