FWIW, there is the solution to bootstrap the install with another mean
on a floppy.
For example, using GRUB with serial line to load a plan9 install kernel
(not tested).
Or to use etherboot (gPXE) on a floppy to load a PXE version.
Just to say that the remove of the floppy mean doesn't render plan9
uninstallable on a floppy only machine, but impose an external mean to
load/bootstrap.
