OK, teste on some other machines. both CDs booted like vmWare did :(
so, it's my ide controler for sure. Is there any purpose in trying booting
with a floppy to see that the next stage in the boot will reconize it?

Yes that seems to be the case since it only gives me floppy. But they're
IDE0:0 and IDE:1:0. that is, each on one cable, but on the same
controler (onboard KX133 chipset)
the board i'm using: http://www.k7v.com/ <http://www.k7v.com/>
i'm off to test on other machines. Is there any documented way to
install plan9 or inferno using only floppies or something like OpenBSD
ftp install?
Thanks

the loader (9load) can't seem to find both the hard drive and the
CDROM (IDE, right?). are they on the same cable by any chance?

I suspect this might be a problem with 9load. I pulled, rebuilt my
kernel, and copied a new(er) version of 9load into my 9fat on my CPU
server this morning. I had to get someone on the East Coast to copy
an older version of 9load into place to get it to come back.

what's your cd-rom connected as? the install tries
sdD0!dos!9pcflop.gz
sdC is primary, sdD is secondary, 0 is master, 1 is slave.

you can download a floppy from the plan9.bell-labs.com web site and do
a network install. also try downloading a complete iso image from
that site and burning it anew. i couldn't find out from your first
message whether you burned a brand new iso image.

I've downloaded the plan9 instalation CD and booted a vmWare virtual machine
using that .iso as a cd rom media.
All went fine. It booted and i could install plan9 and even see the liveCD
stuff.
Then, to not be locked in the 30-day vmWare, i went to burn that CD and
install in dual boot.
First i burned it with Nero 6. I booted the computer, and it said something
about booting a 2.88MB floppy image. then ended up with the folowing lines
(may be diferent since i haven't wrote down all the text):
Available boot devices: fd0
what device to use: <i wrote fd0>
Must use device!file
what device to use: <i wrote fd0!plan9>
not found (ok, this text was very diferent but the idea was that :)
what device to use: <i wrote fd0!386/9load>
not found
When i first instaled in vmWare, it haven't outputed the "2.88MB floppy"
thingy, and started a menu with 1. install, 2. run from cd...
My first tought was that nero messed up with the image (I recall the
installer, in vmWare, showing me that there were 2 tracks on the CD ROM,
wich was the iso. and nero only wrote one track from that same iso) so i
wasted another media burning the .iso with alchool120%. but i've got the
same results.
Any ideia what i'm doing wrong? or the boot sequence is suposed to behave
like that (detecting vmWare, etc)?
Thanks,
Ganbriel
