My alpha seems to be broken.  I had been booting it from Plan 9.  I
think that your dhcp server just needs to provide the options that
Plan 9 expects (where's the file server, auth server, etc.?) or you
have to supply that information in /alpha/conf.

There didn't seem to be much advantage to Plan 9 on the Alpha aside
from floating point speed and a non-x86 CPU.
