Bell Labs Plan 9 and networking works well in virtualbox 3.1.8 using
Am79C973 virtual ethernet adapter in bridged mode, chipset PIIX3
selected and "Enable IO APIC" turned off.  (Maybe not the only usable
settings but these work for me.)

Some newer versions of virtualbox have been reported as problematic.
You can search for "virtualbox old builds" on the web.
