sorry, forgot about the commands.
from a fresh install:

	cd /sys/lib/dist/cmd
	mk install
	mk clean
	cd /sys/lib/dist/pc
	mk clean
	rm -f boot.raw	# may be necessary if you have a failed build there
	mk ndisk

there is some indication that the resulting
disk will work if you copy plan9.ini.vmware
to the disk as the plan9.ini (by default it is
empty).  that indication is that nobootprompt
is already set to local!/boot/bzroot.  i feel like
i fixed it for someone a few months ago, but
i forget who (steve simon, perhaps).

i'll test it again a bit later.
