Usually it is:
/dev/cd0
/dev/cd1
etc, depends on how many optical drives you have.
In sysinstall, you can go to the index of functions and from there execute
the start an emergency shell. That will start the emergency shell so you
can do the manual mount on the other virtual terminal without leaving
sysinstall.

If you boot then exit sysinstall to a prompt, try to mount the external
drive. If you can mount it, then rerun sysinstall and choose to install
from a mounted file system instead.

More details:
I am able to boot and get to the installation utility but when I go to
"choose installation media" and choose "CD/DVD" the response is "No
CD/DVD devices found!"
what can I do about this?
Cheers,
Noah

Hi there,
is there a way to install FreeBSD from an external USB DVD-ROM drive?
I am at a loss of how to do it.
