The Atheros is just not supported, it seems.

It's the 3Com that baffles me. I suspect the two-stage boot (I know
dangerously little about 9front's boot process) somehow fails to pick
up a supported device (3c905b - etherelink3).

Lucio.

PS: It bothers me that I can't serve a 9front workstation from a
9legacy fossil server: the jig-saw puzzle pieces are very subtly
incompatible.

Maybe I ought to remind myself what exactly goes wrong when trying to
netboot a 9front kernel and from there pick a 9front tree to be
served. Naturally, I don't want to have two distinct file servers and
it is way too early for me to feel I should migrate to 9front. I need
to point out that (unless I mis-remember) it is in the Bell Labs
distribution that the gears begin to slip.
