The cdrom can be used to boot from it which makes a cool demo.
You don't need anything else. Of course a network would be more
impressive, but you said you had no network there.

last time i gave a demo of plan 9 i just sat down with a laptop and showed
what it was to use the system. in my experience that's much
better than all the pretty powerpoint one can get...
'now this is the kernel, see how small'
'this is how a pipe works'
'binding namespaces in the same directory works like that'
'see me cpu to another machine, look at how 'stats' reacts'
it is best if there are at least a cpu server or two...

Thanks to all those who provided feedback. I'llt take it in the proper
consideration.
Since I never got an answer regarding correct citation in regards
copyright (ie single or multiple) I've decided to use none of the
Lucent/Bell Labs material directly.

It's called Figure 1, not Diagram 1, and it's required in all
Plan 9 presentations except the auth talk, in which case
use Figure 1a.

Try something from the mailing list.
How about :
"The Plan 9 community is so damned inbred it isn't funny, and it -will-
cause Plan 9 to fail. -YOU- will cause it to fail."

Hi,
I've been asked to give a short (ie 1 hour) talk on Plan 9 to the Austin
Robot Group in Feb. As a result I am starting to put a presentation
together and was wondering what the limitations were regarding using
diagrams and pieces of text in such a talk. An example is that I intend
to use 'Diagram 1' from "Plan 9 from Bell Labs" early in the talk.
What sort of notice is required? Would a single statement at the beginning
stating that pieces of the presentation are from the Plan 9 source
material be sufficient or do I need to have a tag on each such snippet?
Are there any examples of other presentations that might be available for
reference?
If we can get the hardware resources pulled together I intend to create a
demo network consisting of the following:
I/O-Auth
I/O
2 Process
Filesystem
We may drop this due to the necessary effort, the site doesn't have
Internet access so we can't use the existing Hangar 18 network
unfortunately.
If anyone else has done anything remotely like this I'd appreciate hearing
about your experience (ie things to watch out for or focus on). If I could
gain access to your presentation material it would be greatly appreciated.
I'd be happy to give credit where it is due.
Thanks.
