OpenBSD 2.7 Installation problem with CD media



First I had trouble installing from CD. After telling the installation tool
to use cd0 and 'partition' c (ever heard of an partioned CD?) the esp0
driver complaind about 
--8<--
'esp0: !TC on DATA XFER [intr 10, stat 83, step 4] prevphase 1, resid 800'
-->8--
Later I found, that I can't mount the cdrom #2 from the running OpenBSD
system (strangely the BIOS was able to boot from it). CD #1 mounts just
fine.

This problem might be caused by the drive not beeing an original Sun cd-
rom drive but a NEC one. So in the end, it might not be strictly a bug,
but an undocumented feature ;-)
