I have a similar problem.  I used my Win98 box to download the NetBSD
sources and binaries for both the 1.4.2 and the packages.  My CD Writer is
USB based so I burned from Win98.  Under Win98, everthing on the CD looks
fine, long file names etc.  Under NetBSD-1.4.2_ALPHA, the file names are
shortened to standard MS-DOS 8.3

I typically mount the CD from the command line using

mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd0a /cdrom

Is there some variation on the mount command that will enable MS-DOS long
file names?
