okay.  there's a new 9atom with a new, and hopefully correct,
fix for the ahci problem.  the problem was that you have two
ahci controllers with different capabilities.  i wasn't taking that
case into account.  let me know if i've broken everything again.

i've also made an attempt to recognize your ethernet
controller.  no promises whatsoever.  i have no docs
and i don't have that hardware.  but the patented guess-o-magic
technique has produced positive results in the past, so
it's worth a try.

if you can get just the kernel onto your plan 9 install, you may
be able to download just a new kernel, in the same directory as
the full iso.
