I'm trying to run the most recent Plan9 image in a Virtual PC 2007 VM.  
The install went flawlessly, but I'm getting write errors, at which time 
things just go really bad and the console starts spewing this error 
every few seconds:

command 30
data f18d8520 limit f18da520 dlen 8192 status 0 error 0
lba 520112 -> 520112, count 16 -> 16 (16)
 0x00 0x0f 0xB1 0xEF 0x07 0xE0 ox58
0x40: E307 0x42: c0000x48: 00
0x4A: 0000
fossil: disk WriteRaw failed: /dev/sdC0/fossil: score 0x0000466e: date 
Thu Nov  8 14:43:48 EST 2007
 part=data block 18030: i/o error

Any clues?

Thanks,
    Paul

it looks to me that sdata.c only prints this when i/o times out.
since you're sending a non-dma command, the most likely problem
is a missed interrupt.

that's not very helpful, is it.

is there any chance your original problem was a real i/o error?

I've seen the same: installs OK, doesn't run well on VPC2007. My
solution was to run a non-virtual file server and just use the VPC as
a terminal. That's not very helpful either.
