9load should get the extra partition information
automatically.  If you've got any names (like 9fat
or fs) in both partitions, plan9 trumps plan9.1,
I think.

As long as you don't have such duplicates,
you should be able to do things like sdC0!9fat.1!9pcdisk
and local!#S/sdC0/fs.1

Hi,

	anyone boots using the second plan9 partition on a hard disk?
	I think I must be mistaken, but I think the only way to do it
	is to modify 9load to use the "plan9.1" partition instead of
	the "plan9" one. But there must be a easier way. Anyone know of 
	one?

	BTW, I tried setting "plan9.1" as the active partition, but no luck.

thanks
