I decided to blow everything away last night and start over, including the
Plan 9 CPU server I am pxe booting from.   The plan 9 installation I worked
from was from the ISO available last night.

Looking over my notes it appears the only thing I had to do to prevent the
crash was enable my fossil FS's listening capabilities.  Now the guruplug
gets a kernel and an FS every time.

I'm probably going to plan 9 wikify my notes either tonight or tomorrow.
