Don`t discount Grub, it is very strong and plan9 friendly, It installs to the MBR, fdisk on linux has an option to clear it , a windows fdisk will erase it with fdisk /mbr , or you can dd 512 out of /dev/zero to the MBR.
For GRUB all you need is to define the root partition for 9
In the grub shell try:
root (hd0,0) /*or what ever your 9 part is */
rootnoverify
chainloader +1
boot
