Hello,
The new 9atom iso fails for me the same.  But if you finish manually the
installation formatting and preparing the 9fat partition, the system boots right
(just as erik said).  Also, the annoying "cpu0:spurious interrupt" kernel message
is gone (with the iso's 9pcf and with a 9pccpuf compiled by me), so I spouse
the problem is in 9pccd.

This is the linux's lspci output:

Maybe this can be of any use for erik and the people working in 9load and Plan 9's kernel.
For now that is the only thing I can do, test and report... I hope in the future to be of more help.

When I have time I will try installing Plan 9 in the other machine that fails with PBSR...
(an old PentiumIII).

Regards,
trebol.
