there's no md5 hash for the floppy
image because each floppy has a different
plan9.ini depending on what hardware you
described.

as for your actual problem, somehow the lock
has been acquired and the processor is trying to
acquire it again.

the most likely happening is that somehow our
cli/sti code isn't quite working under bochs.

how hard is bochs to install?
