Hello,
I am trying to install Plan 9.
My boot process is stalling after printing:
cpu0 ( pentium 2 .... )
ECLR < it hangs here >
The trouble-shooting page leads me to believe that this indicates
that 9load has done its bootstrap work correctly, and that the boot-scripts
are not reached.
The problem lies in the kernel.
I gather that the Plan9 kernel is customizable, but I know very little
about the process. Is there a way to create a modified kernel image
on a host operating system like linux or BSD, or find prebuilt images other
than the generic install kernel. ( which doesn't seem to like my hardware. )
I would very much like to play with Plan 9.
Should I wait for the new distribution?
tks,
mulc
