I'm installed.

Made a custom boot floppy with the plan9.ini from plan9.iso's
boot.img. In addition,
one of either *noe820scan=1 or *norealmode=1 were required to avoid
the freeze-up
mentioned throughout this thread. The floppy's boot menu points to
kernels on the
plan9.iso that is configured as the IDE secondary master.

Taking another cue from Jack's experiences, I asked for the NIC to be
configured as
a RTL8139. With either option (*noe820scan or *norealmode), my installed system
can't pass icmp or tcp traffic to hosts on the local network.
Networking is configured
as normal (in fact, the configuration is identical to the Plan9 in
qemu I had working on
this same hardware under KVM/qemu -> OpenBSD -> kqemu/qemu -> Plan 9). After
booting, the contents of /net/iproute, ip/ndb, etc., seem correct and
are consistent with
my other, working, Plan 9 systems.

The new system can ping it's own IP address, but cannot be pinged from
the local network.

I suspect there may be some sort of arp confusion in the ethernet
switch. This system
was previously configured with the same IP address, bridged from
kqemu/qemu to the
kqemu/qemu host's external interface (which itself was a virtual
interface hosted on
KVM/qemu). With this new configuration, the MAC address has changed.
I've submitted
a support request to check it out.
