If I'm not mistaken, you should be able to edit the plan9.ini file on a
PC, to set the source you want to boot from. However, I did that only
once, and I don't remember the details... look up plan9.ini(8)
(http://lsub.org/magic/man2html/8/plan9.ini), boot(8)
(http://lsub.org/magic/man2html/8/boot) and booting(8)
(http://lsub.org/magic/man2html/8/booting) for details, etc..
