Don't Do That(tm).  Those images are old.  ahc on IP32 has resource allocation
bugs that preclude installation from CDROM.

Retrieve the latest autobuild binaries from releng.netbsd.org.  Netboot the
IP32 installation kernel, per the installation instructions.  Enjoy the
goodness of NetBSD/sgimips.
