9sscpu problem:
For some reason, the authid in the nvram was already all zeroes, with
a checksum of 9, which gets it through the checks. The console device
doesn't like you writing empty strings to #c/hostowner, though.
Don't know whether I was just unlucky, or I'd put a null password
in there at some time in the past (can you?). It's failing on the mount now,
which, as forsyth suggested in email, is probably because I don't have
the right information in the u9fs's files.

Sudden thought: I've been alternating 9ss and 9ssfs on this machine -
is 9ss clearing the authid?
