you should look at david's link to the golang-dev thread a few p= osts ago. he has a labs image and some notes about the setup. my 9front ima= ge 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 host= s. this doesn't happen with the ethervirtio device.

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

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