Has anyone had any luck using a CD-ROM drive with MacBSD?  I noticed
the cd* entry in /dev/MAKEDEV, and had a couple iso-9660/rock ridge
source CD's so I thought I'd give it a shot.  No luck - the mount
either fails or the drives busy light stays on and the next bus access
causes the "biodone" panic.  I've appended the serial console output
to this message.

First of all, what's the difference between cd0a and cd0d?  SunOS just
has /dev/sr0.  Why the partition syntax?

I don't know anything about this drive other than the inquiry data
shown during scsibus autoconfig (It's a "Poweruser" drive; the house
brand of MacConnection or MacWarehouse).  One thing worth noting: the
bus autoconfig below states that a CD is installed.  That is _wrong_.
I get the same message if the drive is empty (no tray), has an empty
tray, or actually has a CD in it.

I can't find any mention of cdrom's in the man pages (I looked for cd
in section 4) in either the source distribution (I pulled it of
gatekeeper.dec.com, sun-lamp was _really_ slow), or in the binary
distribution.  I did find mount_cd9660, but that's not what I was
looking for.

Should this this work, or am I in uncharted waters?  The CD's have a
few _big_ tarfiles, so I could always mount them under MacOS, use the
installer to copy in the tarfiles, and boot...

Source questions:
Can I rebuild a kernel from the stuff I got off gatekeeper?
Will the patches in ftp.netcom.com:/pub/gantham/NetBSD_Mac/sys.111494.tgz
bring me up to the MRG kernel that Brad distributed?
Where can I get the source for crypt?

Thanks and sorry for the long post,
Greg
