Due to changes in the machine-independent side of NetBSD, ATAPI support is
no-longer present in current kernels, so IDE CDROMs can't be read under
RiscBSD. If there's an old kernel around from the time before the changes
were made, then that may work ok, but...

Sets can be copied from CDROMs to RiscBSD via UnixFS fairly easily under
RiscOS, tho.
