on my DECstation 5000/200, I'm trying to boot from a ISO 9660 CD.
>>cnfg

6: PMAD-AA DEC V5.3a TCF0 (enet: 08-00-2b-1b-c1-24)
5: PMAZ-AA DEC V5.3b TCF0 (SCSI = 7)

>>boot 5/rz5/netbsd.pmax
?IO: 5/rz5/netbsd.pmax (bb rd)
After I made the image, I did (on pmax):
installboot -v image.iso bootxx_cd9660
then on an alpha
installboot -vs image.iso bootxx_cd9660
There is a kernel called "netbsd.pmax" in the root partition.
Any thoughts?
