i'm attempting CD install of netbsd 1.5 on i386 platform
everything runs fine in sysinstall until i get to package installation
i select CDROM as the source, but when prompted for the location of the 
binaries, sysinstall does not seem to recognize "cd0" as my cd drive.

i've tried setting device to cd0a, cd0a1, cd1, cd1a, etc.  none of those 
points sysinstall to the cddrive.  i looked through /kern/msgbuf  there's no 
"cd" string in there of anykind. is this normal?  the drive must be detected 
because all of this is booting from cd.
