That's pretty close to what I have. Mine is installed on /dev/hda1 (the
second primary partition) and my grub entry looks like:
title=Plan9
rootnoverify (hd0,1)
chainloader +1
So in principal, if everything is set up correctly and you have the Plan 9
boot block at the beginning of the partition, it should work. Is the
error coming from Plan 9 or from grub?
