This is clearly an Apple HFS cd, not iso9660 at all. The "PM" (for
"Partition Magic"?) identifies the block as a partition table entry,
The "02" in the top row(s) means that there are exactly two entries,
including the Map Header, and the second block describes the type
of the only actual partition, in plain text, and also the the start
and size (in there somewhere: probably 0x09 and 0x051105). This is
_exactly_ the same format found on Apple HFS hard disks, and so
permits this CD to be mounted native on a Mac OS system.

There's no support in the NetBSD kernel for a standard mount, but
you can browse the disk, or copy the files out, with the help of
the sysutils/hfsutils or the sysutils/xhfs packages.
