I happen to have a CD-ROM full of UNIX source that I'd like to get
into MacBSD.  Unfortunately, it's an ISO-9660(?) disk, the filenames
on it are all DOS format (mutter mutter), and I don't really want to
go through changing them all to match the makefiles.

The book it came with ("UNIX Unleashed" - how *butch*) mentions the
"Rock Ridge" extensions that will allow automatic expansion of the DOS
names to UNIX names.

So my questions are:

 . Can I mount CD-ROMs in MacBSD? (I haven't seen any traffic about
   this on the list in the last 3 months, and I can't find anything in
   the FAQs, but as before, I live in hope.)

 . If so, do the Rock Ridge extensions exist for MacBSD?

 . If not, do they exist for the Mac side?

Any info will be gratefully received, so I can start compiling some of
this stuff.

Thanks,

FWIW tech note:

  NEC 2x CD-ROM, Charismac drivers + usual ISO-9660, High Sierra,
  etc. extensions installed on the Mac side.

  MacBSD 1.1, GENERICSBC-1 kernel on the other side.
