I am trying to build a Plan9 cpu/auth/file server (all in a single box). Is
it possible?

At the end of the document titled "Installing the Plan 9 Distribution", it
says:

"The kfs patches are currently being soaked and may appear before long."

Are the details available? Can someone tell me how I can do it?

Thanks
dharani
