Did you include "options ATAPI" as well?

Look in the LINT configuration file.

#
# Options for `wdc':
#
# ATAPI enables the support for ATAPI-compatible IDE devices
#
options         ATAPI   #Enable ATAPI support for IDE bus

# IDE CD-ROM driver - requires wdc controller and ATAPI option
device          wcd0

The system expects the filenames to be of the proper format.  MSDOS filename 
limitations munge the name so it can't find it properly.  Copy the package 
over to your FreeBSD partition, rename to 'lynx-2.4.2.tgz', and run 'pkg_add 
lynx-2.4.2.tgz'.  That should add it in.  

Note there is an "freebsd-faq.ascii" that can be viewed with more in 
/usr/share/doc/FAQ.  The most current FAQ can be retrieved from the FreeBSD 
web site at http://www.freebsd.org.
