Very embarrassed silence...
Ah, having just pulled the cover back off the PC and crawled around to
have a look, it is *not* a PCI card. Its an old 3c509 EtherLink III.
Even with ether0=elnk3 and *noetherprobe in plan9.ini it still hangs
when booting from the hard disk if the 3com card is plugged in, but will
boot ok with no ethernet card. Or, I can boot off the install CD from
the 26th and use the network.
