You may need to set your ethernet card's IRQ explicitly.
It's been a while, but I seem to recall that the default
didn't work well on some systems (in particular, mine).
I used (the system died years ago)
ether0=type=3C589 irq=11 media=10BaseT
in plan9.ini.
Watch during bootup for a line beginning with "#l0:".
If that doesn't work, try adding
pccard0=disabled
in plan9.ini to fall back to the old PCMCIA only driver
(by default we use the PCCARD+PCMCIA driver; maybe
it has a bug when dealing with your hardware).
During bootup, you should get a "#Y0:" line with
the PCCARD driver and a "#y0:" line with the
PCMCIA driver.
