I am trying to do exactly this on a Pi4. This is what I did.

I created a file plan9.ini in the dos partition.

9fs dos
acme /n/dos/plan9.ini

and added:
nvram=#S/sdM0/nvram

I did not understand the bit about nvme. What is the line you added for that? There is no nvme in /dev/sdM0. I rebooted and auth/wrkey is still complaining about nvram. There is no /env/nvram. How did you progress from this? 

Thanks
