Thanks Fco and Russ for reply.

I am really using SCSI drives (sd03 is the forth drive).  The SCSI card
has Symbios 53C875 chip.

I have tried the Russ's kernel.  The result, however, is the same (kfs
error again).

I have commented out the 'ether=rtl8139' line in 'plan9.ini'.  The pause
of 10 minutes long, however, is not shortened.

I have done again [copydist] in the installer.  The result never changes.

Since the installer's plan9 works fine, including kfs and rio (except
the problem of long pause), I think that my plan9 will certainly boot
and work, as soon as the neccessary settings are done.

What is lacking?  How can I investigate the problem?
