Do you get any sort of error from the command? It would help to know:
* what command you are issuing
* what output you get back
* [possibly irrelevant] which port of NetBSD you're using
* [if applicable] what interface the CD-ROM is on (SCSI (which
card)? if ix86, IDE (which controller)?), etc.
The command that works for me on NetBSD/mac68k (SCSI CD-ROM) is:
# mkdir /cdrom
# mount -r -t cd9660 /dev/cd0a /cdrom
