Now I got why 9front people use hjfs instead of cwfs for 9pi.

Yes, when I use root from tcp, many things got better.
Richard's rpi has the option of ipconfig='....' in cmdline.txt,
but 9front-9pi doesn't.   I had to use termrc.local to setup ipconfig line.
This means two versions have some diference in the firmware?

The reason why I tried 9front-rpi instead of original one is that I cannot cpu
from the original to our 9ront cpu machine.   This is neccessary to read pdf
files on the 9pi terminal.☺
