one question, is the kernel able to print a message if it is started
on incompatible machine:
panic: this kernel requires PAE which is not supported by this hard

If it requires PAE, it will not run on Banias and Dothan B-stepping
and C-stepping (on 400MHz FSB) CPUs (most Pentium M's).
This is really great. Thanks for all your work, Erik.

9atom-nix (as nemo calls it) just replaced the old 9atom image.
you can find the old image @ 0201-9atom.iso.bz2
key additions to sources
- iplpxe (from cinap), a bios based pxe loader
- /sys/src/9/pcpae (from charles), a pentium kernel with pae.
- /sys/src/9/nix, a nix kernel that includes a termi
