deactivate slave on first IDE

Hi :)

Since my system doesn't boot when my cdrom is plugged in (it hangs after 
timecounter... ; see my previous post), I was wondering if it was possible to 
tell FreeBSD not to "deal" with IDE1-slave (something like "boot -noide2)...
Indeed, in my bios, I set the IDE1-slave to none, but FreeBSD keeps hanging on 
bootup.

Thanks for any hints.

Antoine
