actually it is. My openrd (same as a plug) has a 500 GB USB hard drive
($50 from Frys; I was using a flash drive but ventifmt made it die)
and I'm working to a hands-off booting. I changed the boot environment
variables to default to booting from 9fat on the disk, and that gets
me to Plan 9. I don't understand why you think this is not hands-off?
Currently things don't work out so well when I boot :-)
But I have not touched it for a bit.

I don't want to have an outward-facing OSX or Linux. I trust Plan 9
more if only because I figure most people will ignore it ...

ARMs are great! Just look at the gumstix.
