mine's a lot simpler:


bootfile=9pccpuf
bootargs=local!/dev/sdE0/other
nvram=/dev/sdE0/nvram
mouseport=ps2
monitor=vesa
vgasize=1024x768x16

ohh.. that's wierd. I have *msi=1 on the usb plan9.ini. the installer didn't put that into the on-disk one. it put all my other mods in so I didn't think about it.

And that was it! Both problems gone with this one line: *msi=1
