I'm looking at the p9 bootstrap sequence (mostly trying to get
acquainted with the asm) and I see lots of similarities between

/sys/src/boot/pc/l.s
and
/sys/src/pc/9/l.s

francisco balestros indicates in his 'notes on p9' that the kernel may
have done the loading itself in a previous reincarnation of the system
(page 32 of his notes, right on top).. if that indeed is true, how was
the bootstrap sequence organized then?
