Most of my trouble came from my lack of knowledge of Plan 9. Then, I've
read and read manuals and relevant sources, particularly 'build.c' under
/sys/lib/pcdist/src helped me much.
One point I can say is that you should have efective c:/plan9/lib/ndb/local
file under the DOS partition. In my case, I wrote three entries of lines
begining with 'ip=', which someone described here previously, for all
the three machines. This will fake 9dos. :-)
I'm using SOYO's 486 motherboard(SY-27B) + 3COM 3C509B + AMD DX4/120SV8B
(write-back internal cache type) for CPU(AUTH) server with 16MB RAM.
(unfortunately, DOS 6.2J does not boot up, but Plan 9 can. ^_^) This is
a diskless machine. This is the only one machine with 72 pin SIMM, aka
new one.
An old 486 motherboard(about 4 years ago) + AHA1542B + Quantum Fireball
1080S + 486DX/33MHz + 16MB RAM for my file server. No problems without
a trivial one, that is it's not so fast. :-) An older Prodesigner II is
its VGA card.
An old 486 motherboard(also about 3.5 years ago) + SMC 8013EP + AHA1542B
+ old 200MB Maxtor LXT-200S + Machspeed VGA 1600(et4000/W32) and 8MB RAM
for terminal.
All the SVGA cards I have do not work over 640x480x1. ;_;
