i just tried some boots without a plan9.ini (9load tweaked to probe
suitable ether devices, but no other changes). the machine is a standard
asus k7m motherboard with a floppy and 2 ether cards, no other
peripherals:
it takes 20s from power on to get 9load off the floppy, probe for peripherals
and get to the 'boot from: ' prompt;
it takes 3s after typing 'ether0!/386/9pccpu' to the above prompt to get the
kernel over the ether and get the 'root is from (il, tcp)[il]: ' prompt.
perhaps the kernel is poking some other peripherals on your system (e.g. things
that look like discs) to create the delay you see after the kernel is loaded?
