I think I'll try installing plan9 again, in a few days as right now I don't really have time to do so, this time going through the bootsetup phase. Maybe I'll even download a current iso. Also, I see that you don't have a "boot" line in your grub config after chainloader, that might be the problem, I'll check without it. Johnny
