For NetBSD/i386, you can do :

% cd /.../nebsd-x-i386
% [mkisofs/mkhybrid] -a -v -r -b installation/floppies/boot.fs . -o /...../cd.iso

installation/floppies/boot.fs is the image of the netbsd
installation floppy disc.

cd.iso is the image of the cdrom you will have to write
(with cdrecord for ex.).

with mkhybrid, you can add '-J' if you want this cd readable by
MS systems.

Don't forget '.' in order to tell mkisofs/mkhybrid that you take
all files and directories from the current path.
