 Please provide more details.
 
 Which "the distribution CD" are you talking about (i.e. from what URL
 did you download) and why do you think it should contain sources?
 
 This is not a trick question, but I counted 55 *.iso files in the
 /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-9.2/images directory, they are not all alike.
 
 You mention "syssrc", which would be found in
 /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-9.2/source/sets as syssrc.tgz.
 
 If there is an inconsistency in the installer/install documentation/release
 build procedure we certainly want to fix it, but we have to understand
 what is wrong where. I don't think we ever have put sources on the
 binary install CDs (but I might misremember).
