I read the mac68k faq about this but that didn't help.  The faq says the
following:

  1.  check to see if /dev/cd0? exists.

   "I did this and found that I have cd0a - cd0c in there, but no cd0"
 Is that OK?  is the question mark a special characiter "cd0" in step
one?"

  2. If it does not exist, as root, type:

cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV cd0

	"I did this, but it still doesn't show this cd0  file in the /dev
directory"  Why is that?

3.  Then make sure the mount point exists.
	mkdir /cdrom

	"no problem here."

4.  mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cdoc /cdrom

  " I get this message when I try this step: "mount_cd9660: : Invalid
argument"  fredfl2: /dev # Dec 29 14:55:29 fredfl2 /netbsd: cd0(esp0:3:0):
no data found, requested size: 16 (decimal), data = 00 00 00 00 64 00 00
00 00"

  Does any one know where the problem might?  Is there a mistake in the
FAQ instructions?

  Take care,
