The conversation about alphas inspired me to pull out
my alphapc and fire it up.

Once I figured out that it was hanging because it was
looking for a non-existent keyboard, it boots fine. The
problem is that something seems to be wrong with
ipconfig. My DHCP server receives the request and
responds, but the alpha isn't seeing the reply. Neither
is my laptop running plan9 in vmware. I see other DHCP
requests and responses just fine. I have no idea what
is special about this.

Aside from the normal network hardware problems
(checked all those already), does anyone have any
suggestions on where to look as it relates to plan9?

Thanks.
