>From the inspections of Cinap and I, albeit a while back, Erik's FS does not take NVR from floppy. That's why Erik suggested that you create a small 9fat partition (using the Plan 9 Install/Boot CD) on your primary master HDD and put the NVR on that. I suppose you should also be able to put the rest of your files in that partition and just boot directly from that.
