Before I start typing Plan 9 boot output or lspci output, here is the
weirdness:

The Plan 9 iso image that I downloaded a couple days ago behaves
strangely.  When booting from the CD image on the CD, pccd.gz, Plan 9
recognizes my hard drive as sdE.  When I boot from the floppy image,
pcflop.gz, it does not recognize my hard drive at all.

Anyway to install from the environment loaded from the CD image?

Thanks.

David

Thanks, Erik.

The 9atom image worked like a charm.
