Attatched is the offending plan9.ini.

The offending 9pcflop.gz is 1 200 908 bytes long.

This is another VAIO USB install on a PCG-Z600LEK.

The on board i82557 Ethernet card is found, which is a definite plus.

I tried two different floppy drives, on them same system.

True, but it gives you the configuration from which the floppy
image was built.

This is how they read on linux:

Check that you can read back 9pcflop.gz under
some other system using the same floppy drive.
Plan9.ini has nothing to do with it (yet).
