I think the Live CD comes from a third-party. I don't know what its kernel
configuration is like. I assume it is the same release of NetBSD 2.0.

Maybe you can run:

  strings /netbsd | sed -n 's/^_CFG_//p' | unvis | less

(Or does anyone know where the kernel configuration for this Live CD is?)

to see the kernel configuration. It would be nice to compare that with the
kernel configuration used for the install CD.
