if I understand correctly, you cannot directly install on the X20
because it has no cd drive?

is it possible to copy the plan9 iso image onto your hard disk
(in a windows or linux partition or so) when it is in the pakock,
and then put the hard disk inside the IBM Thinkpad X20,
and then do the installation, using the image on the hard disk?

hmmm... then the problem becomes:
how to boot the X20 into the installation program
once the hard disk is again inside the X20...
does the X20 have a floppy,
or could a usb stick be used, or so?

sorry, turns out I have more questions than answers,
Axel.
