sdC0!cdboot!9pcflop.gz

but only then

The problem here is that 9load and some drive controllers are
apparently made of fail and AIDS. I have experienced this same problem
with a working CD on an older Pentium machine. I don't think I ever
solved it.

I have the same problem in a Pentium II, the 9load cannot work with the 
CD. My Motherboard is a Soyo for PII 350 MHz

i have this problem with a 440GX pIII machine that i use as
a plan 9 terminal.  the solution for me was to boot from floppy
then run 9660srv by hand and mount the distribution that way.

linux can boot on the same machine so theoretically it would
be possible to fix, but i'm not sure how much effort it would be.

I use "floppy + network installation", I can't use the CD ( I try with 
two different drives)

I had the same problem in a Pentium 90 Mhz machine and in an old PII HP and 
Toshiba laptops. In P90 I booted it from floppy, but later it can't recognize 
HDD (no problems with linux an *BSD in all of them). In laptops I solved 
extracting their hdd's, puting in another laptop and installing plan9 from 
it.
