I am not 100% sure there's nothing different in the configuration, but I've made the plan9.ini look the same in both VMs and still it fails to detect the NE2000 emulated ethernet card. There are also ominous messages about usbd: no hub during bootup that don't happen under the old one.

No device at all. In frustration, I added the following to my plan9.ini:

*noetherprobe=1
ether0=ne2000

This had no effect either. I didn't have to do anything interesting for the old image either, I don't think.

OK, so after so many bytes free, I get this:

cpu0: 2671MHz GenuineIntel Core i5 (cpuid: AX 0x20655 DX 0x1F8BFBFF)
ELCR: 0E80
256M memory: 105M kernel data, 151M user, 574M swap
usbinit...usbd..../boot/usbd: /dev/usb: no hubs
no usbd...no usb disk...auth...usbinit...usbd.../boot/usbd: /dev/usb: no hubs
no usbd...no usb disk...mount usbd...boot: can't open /srv/usb: '/srv/usb' file does not exist
time...
fossil(#S/sdC0/fossil)...version...time...
can't stat /srv/parts.sdXX: '/srv/partfs.sdXX' file does not exist

init: starting /bin/rc

And that's it, nothing particularly interesting. What else can I do to debug this?

Thanks,
