Ahoi. I am eagerly trying to install plan9 in my x86 P4 with MSI 865 MB machine.. actually it is my second install the first went without problems on my x86 AMD Athlon XP with Gigabyte MB. And of course I have problems ;) The first is: I simply cannot post the the plan9 mail list.. I can do whatever I want.. I cant post there.. but I CAN receive the emails other post. Interesting. Since as I see you're an active member I am asking you my questions. I hope you can answer them or can forward it to the plan9 mail list. 1: why can't I post to the mail list. Here's the letter I wanted to post.. (sorry my my bad English) Ahoi. Finally I could install my plan9 system. 1: would you correct the cd boot loader so that in case it recognizes the cd az sdD1 it wouldn't try to boot sdD0!cdboot!9pcflop.gz (anyways it can be corrected) 2: bootcfg: ive installed plan9 to a secondary master hdd. On that one there 's no bootable os just plan9.. so plan9 cannot find winnt boot.ini, which is on primary master HDD. Using the plan9 option is no solution.. plan9 makes the plan9 partition active, but whenever I boot from that HDD lilo boot screen comes in with old config. (I had gentoo previously). If I manually modify winnt's boot.ini.. screen goes blank at boot and restart. (Maybe I am too lame for direct accessing boot.ini.. what should I type in if I want secondary master HDD partition 1 (that hosts plan9) to boot? 3: I am working on the boot problem now, but I will also need info how to setup an adsl connection with plan9. is it possible? In every installation guide there's a section how to set up networking, but not a single line on how to set up an adsl connection. Thnx
