This suggests that the ramdisk partition did not contain a properly formatted
paq file system. Make sure the partitions you made with the loader are
the same as those expected by Plan 9 (see Booting101). Then load
kernel and paqdisk using the serial cable and the loader. You need to
mk paqdisk
not `ramdisk' and you need to load the file paqdisk into the ramdisk partition.

You can test that you got it right before you
load it into the iPaq by running
cd /sys/src/9/boot
8c testboot.c
8l testboot.8
8.out paqfs -v -i /sys/src/9/bitsy/paqdisk
ls -l /n/kremvax

thanx, worked like a charm -- the problem was that i had an old
partition configuration (probably from attempts to load inferno on the
same ipaq) after repartitioning it worked fine.

using the new files rob provided, the 9bitsy kernel
loads, prompts me to boot from ipaq and panics with:
paqfs: bad header magic 0xe03988d1: /dev/flash/ramdisk
vpanic: boot process died: sys: write on closed pipe pc=0x00005d60
any ideas?
