The new 9load attempts to offer the bios as a boot device, primarily
for the benefit of usb devices.

It would be helpful to see the omitted parts of the boot messages.
Assuming that the PC printed is actually 800176fa, that's in the cis
(pcmcia) code.  Is this a laptop?

Does this machine have a SATA disk?  If so, does the BIOS have
settings to select AHCI or "compatibility" mode?  If so, what are they
set to?
