Well, I interpreted this:
---quote
3. boot from usb-cd using bootable CD created from plan9.iso.bz2
- here the installer asks about some file, so I satisfy this demand
by giving !sdC0!dos!9pcflop.gz
---endquote
so I understand that by giving fd0!dos!9pcflop.gz (since BIOS should
have arranged with El Torito that the floppy image appears as fd0)
should be enough? (9pcflop.gz is on the floppy image, isn't it?).
