I don't care if it's non-trivial. I want plan9 on this mac and I will
get it on this mac.

The ether is just a tulip. The driver is already in the mtx tree. There
will be issues with bandit, sure, but I want to learn this architecture:
case closed.

So, if anyone out there *has any docs/tips/pointers* for generating
boot files to manage floppy boots, let me know.
