The kld gets autoloaded if the kernel doesn't have cd9660 >compiled-in. The error message that is printed is misleading though, and gives the impression that cd9660 filesystem support is missing: cd9660: No such file or directory When mount(8) runs mount_cd9660, it gives it an argv[0] of the fileystem type i.e. 'cd9660'. That's where the cd9660 in the error message comes from. Maybe mount_cd9660 (and other mount_* programs) should provide a bit more information in the error message?
