Ok,

Your iso image boots OK, however the kernel still doesn't see PATA.

The iso boots off PATA, 9load finds and reads plan9.ini, it fails
to find the kernel (because it is looking on sdD0), if I type the
kernel path in by hand then it loads the kernel as you would expect.

I tried your bootdev device but that didn't seem to work I'am afriad.

Sorry to be the bringer of unexciting tidings.

as an aside, I am just trying a hack to kbd.c to reset numloc and
speed up the keyboard repeat speed at powerup as I have a nice small
keyboard but it always powers up with numloc enabled on plan9 and I
cannot turn it off (teh numlock key has no effect).
