sounds like the plan9 partition isnt marked as active (you get prompted
for that during the installation), or you installed with a GPT partition table,
in which case you might need to make a boot menu entry in the efi firmware
(the installer doesnt attempt to modify efi non volatile memory at all).

you can boot from the iso and check the status of the partition table with
disk/fdisk /dev/sdC0/data (or wherever you installed the system on). the command
to mark a partition as active is A partname. like "A p1" in the case of
fdisk.
