Download http://www.vitanuova.com/dist/4e/20050720/utils.tgz and extract it. Then extract the numbered.gz file you just got using http://morphisms.net/~wkj/Software/9e/9e.c gunzip < numbered.gz | 9e You should be able to download the Plan 9 CD (same compiler source, different license) just fine. Go to http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9dist/ureg.html, check the two boxes, submit, and then download the Install CD, which has a complete system on it. There are mirrors that don't have the silly form: http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Download/index.html Russ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
