For the love of @#$%

this is what works

bootfile=9pc
bootargs=local!/dev/sdC0/fscache tcp!*!564
nobootprompt=local!/dev/sdC0/fscache
mouseport=ps2
monitor=vesa
vgasize=1024x768x16
service=cpu

I can’t have the extra args on the end otherwise it will loop. Is this expected. Without it the system boots without a prompt
