i wasn't assuming that the two setups were identical.  let me
know if that's a bad assumption.

if 9atom fails during the realmode call to e820 in the kernel,
that would mean that there is no e820 map available at all.
i would think that means that the vm is assuming that we know
all the acpi tricks, and i'd find that very odd since afaik, linux
uses e820, even when acpi is available.  probablly because acpi
is too complicated to run before you know if you've got more
than ~480k to touch.

9atom's 9load prints "%d e820 entries" on boot.  is that number 0?
