Hi,

  I finally got my NeXT cube to boot Plan 9 from an u9fs running on a
Intel box with NeXTSTEP. I will write up a summary if there is enough
interest. Some trivial patches to u9fs are necessary to compile it under
NeXTSTEP.

  I'd like to thank presotto@plan9.att.com and forsyth@plan9.cs.york.ac.uk's
help on setting up u9fs and peter@plan9.com's help on booting the NeXT cube.
Also, thanks pace@blitz.com for the auth.srv for Unix.

  Since Plan 9 is running, I have couple more questions.

1. What kind of convertor do I need to connect a Logitech Mouse man to
   the NeXT serial port?

2. How do I do a clean "shutdown" on the terminal? 

3. How do I input 8 1/2 on the NeXT keyboard? The doc says using Alt 1 2 but
   it's not working on my keyboard. How can I fix it? 

Thanks.
