you should look at david's link to the golang-dev thread a few posts ago. he has a labs image and some notes about the setup. my 9front image was very stripped down for testing.

one strange thing about gce is that when the kernel is reading the PCI bar for the sdvirtio device, the port and length are zero, so the driver had to be hacked to set the port and length, which might not work in non-gce hosts. this doesn't happen with the ethervirtio device.

here's the direct link to david's notes. http://www.9legacy.org/9legacy/doc/gce/notes

one particularly important thing to know is that the disk will appear at #S/sd01 with sdvirtio on gce.
