Aha! That would explain it. Thank you.
This leads me to another question: should I be able to install the CD
distribution from my SoundBlaster CD, or should I expect to run into
the same lack of a #m interface? (I've been using pcdist only to
ensure that my hardware is Plan9 compatible, before paying real
money.)
Thanks.

#m was not included in one of the kernels on the floppies.
it has been added to the as yet unfinished new set.

The question is: includes your kernel the cdrom server?
Take a look into /sys/src/9/pc/pc.

Hardware: SoundBlaster 16 (address base 0x220, irq 5, 16bit dma 5) and
Panasonic CD drive connected to the SB16 (CR-562, address base 0x230,
ID 2).
I'm unable to bind my CD. When I type
bind -a '#m' /dev
I get
bind #m /dev: unknown device in # filename
So the question is: where do I look for what's wrong? I assume that
either I'm mistaken about the hardware parameters above or I'm not
putting them in plan9.ini correctly. I doubt the former because Linux
can mount a filesystem and play music from the CD using those
parameters. As for the latter, this is my plan9.ini:
mouseport=ps2
monitor=multisync75
vgasize=1024x768x8
audio0=type=sb16 port=0x220 irq=5 dma=5
cdrom0=type=panasonic port=0x230
Or is there something else I need to do before bind?
Thanks for you help.
