I'd tried to boot plan9 on my a pc.  When I run b.com (the one contained 
on the floppy, not the cd) I get the following:

hardwait timed out d0
hardintr d0
panic: hardintr d0

I've looked through the source code that came on the cd, and I've found 
where this is going on but I don't know what the problem is.  It seems 
that it's waiting for some disk io (from the hard drive?) and times out 
waiting for it and panics, but I don't have a reference to 386 hardware 
interrupts so I'm only guessing at all of this.  Am I close?

My question is 1) has anyone run across this problem and 2) is there any 
way of getting around it or is it a "feature" of my particular hardware?
