Okay, that works.  9atom.iso found both of my hard drives.

I now see the following drives detected when I get to the partdisk
step of the install process:

sdC0 - ST3160821A
     p1	0 8	(8 cylinders, 62.75MB) type 253
     p2	8 19457	(19449 cylinders, 148.98GB) type 253

sdC1 - ST3160821A
     p1	0 8	(8 cylinders, 62.75MB) type 253
     p2	8 19457	(19449 cylinders, 148.98GB) type 253


What is the difference between 9atom and the Plan 9 ISO I downloaded
from the official website?

Will do, thanks.
