You do need a 90 degree field of view. (Think about it like this: 4 sides of
a cube = 360 degrees, so 90 degrees for each side.) Also, you need square
images (since they'll be sides of a cube). The default camera is made for a
4:3 aspect ratio, so this needs to be changed. This should work:

camera {
location 0
direction z
up y
right x

look_at z // set to which side of the "cube" you want to render. (+-x, +-y,
+-z)
}
