I just booted Plan 9 over the network on a Libretto 50CT and
it seemed to work just fine.  I could only do 640x480x1 -- it's
some sort of C&T chipset, but I couldn't glean what it was (the
new C&T chips seem to map their memory into PCI space, which 
aux/vga can't look at easily), and I didn't feel like experimenting
as the Libretto wasn't mine.  If anyone knows, I'd be interested
in hearing.

I was using a 3C589, the new ethernet drivers from David Butler,
and the built-in mouse.
