heh. geez am i dopey. the problem was my misunderstanding of what the
irq=xx parts in plan9.ini do. bios decides the irq, plan9.ini tells
the kernel what the bios decided. that's my isa card mantra from now

thanks everyone,

there's no reason it needs to be isa, i have pci slots too. it's just
the only card i have that qualifies as plan 9 supported hardware
ok ;-) i ass-u-med that you were stuck with a real antique out of no
choice.
This being the case, buy an Intel Pro/100[0] PCI card. Accept no
substitutes. T

i'll try this out and see what happens. of course a better solution

Where can you even buy an ISA Ethernet (or any) card these days? I don't
even see them on Ebay or Cra

yes, i tried setting it in plan9.ini, but the card just ignores it

IPv6 support is a little rusty, but was working. I need to
reestablish an IPv6 test environment here to continually exercise the
code and figure out some remaining thorny issues. The last time I
tried it, I could connect to remote systems via IPv6 using 6in4(8) but
not local systems, and it appea

Many thanks for the offer, but I just don't have access to the required
bandwidth. I had downloaded the first ISO image at a
