I was busy climbing the NetBSD learning curve, and I finally
figured that
        - the cd9660 was not built into the kernel
                /usr/src/sys/srch/pc532/GENERIC
        - the module cannot be dynamically loaded. LKM _is_
          in the config - see erros below.

I now have a kernel with cd9660 bult-in and I can mount cds.

If anyone knows, does lkm work on the pc532? If so then it
will be a better solution in terms of memory utilization.


Here is what I get when I try to load a module, is there
another kernel feature needed for LKM to work?

[root@e1]# f=fdesc ; modload -v -A /E3 -o /var/run/${f}.o
/usr/lkm/${f}.o
modload: reserving 12288 bytes of memory
modload: can't reserve memory: Operation not permitted
