 The wedges for partitions 1 and 2 cannot be configured as they
 overlap with dk0.
 
 On netbsd-7 I also get an error that the GPT is clamped to 128 entries
 (newer netbsd clamps at 512) and then erroneously warns that the CRC
 is invalid.
 
 However, you can access the first partition normally:
 
 # mount -t cd9660 /dev/dk0 /mnt
 # ls /mnt
 EFI      images   isolinux
 
 You need to specify the type, because the GPT entry pretends it is
 an NTFS partition.
 
 
 ># gpt show vnd0    
 >gpt: /dev/rvnd0: map entry doesn't fit media: new start + new size < start + size
 >(0 + 1 < 0 + 13f7c0)
 
 The message is somewhat misleading, but it complains that there are
 overlapping entries. The gpt tool then just aborts... :-/
 
 
 >(and the disklabel, mount -t cd9660 /dev/vnd0a, route is also unhappy)
 
 That on the other hand does work if no wedges had been created
 (or after deleting the autodiscovered wedge).
 
 # dkctl vnd0 delwedge dk0
 # mount /dev/vnd0a /mnt
 # ls /mnt
 EFI      images   isolinux
