Not had the "AHA!" moment promised in this document...

Do I need to run the terminal as user None (and specify that as the
default in plan9.ini) so that the 'real' user can log on to the cpu
server with their credentials after rio has started?

I see how it would work where the terminal has some local resources
that are useful (including where you use drawterm from another OS) -
log onto the local terminal then log on to the cpu - but in the PXE
boot case the terminal isn't supposed to have any local storage or
even much processing power.

Pete
