Wow, I just booted up into Plan9/III and although I don't have
rio running since I asked for 24bit depth, command line is here.

Output of ps is quite interesting:
% ps

glenda         2    0:49   0:00       0K Wakeme    genrandom
glenda         3    0:00   0:00       0K Wakeme    alarm

glenda        27    0:00   0:00     472K Read9p    dossrv
glenda        54    0:00   0:00     472K Broken    rio
glenda        55    0:00   0:00     116K Wait      rc
glenda        75    0:00   0:00      44K Read      ps

also the current directory is:
% pwd
/usr/glenda

System name appears to be:  gnot .

Vga detection:
% cat /dev/vgactl
type mga2164w
blanktime 30
hwaccel off
hwblank off
addr 0xf9000000

It seems to figure out Millenium just fine, but 24 bits are failing.

I need to find some disk space and install the rest of the
system.

ctr-t ctr-t is still there!

rebooting with 640x480x8.

Success!
It looks cool!

Congratulations to the Plan 9 team.

Nikola
