1. I compared the files plan9.ini.cd and plan9.ini, and no significant
differences are found

*nomp=1
*nobiosload=1
*nodumpstack=1

2. After installing the monitor = ask and vgasize = ask, was loaded
into the default mode 640x480x8 (xga)
3. vga, vesa does not work
4. Maybe there is some difference in the kernels?

plan9.ini.cd
bootfile=sdD0!cdboot!9pcflop.gz

plan9.ini
bootfile=sdC0!9fat!9pcf
