I remember my first ventures into this territory with my Philips CDD-2600
and my SPARCstation 2 running NetBSD/sparc 1.4.

After some help from the mailing list I was able to use, and it was quite
simple. Here is a good guide:
http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/misc/#cdr

One note, though, on all other platforms than i386, you have to use
dev=/dev/rcd0c instead of /dev/rcd0d. The reason for that is that the i386
platform uses partition c to denote the NetBSD portion of the disk and the
d partition to be the whole disk. All other platforms use the c partition
to denote the whole disk.

I hope this helps you out.
