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.
