Many thanks for your help. I was able to compile the 9askafs kernel
and make the 9askafs.iso. The cd boots on a notebook, loads the
kernel
and then I got:

panic: no nvr
cpu 0 exiting

I think my plan9.ini is not correct ("nvr=" is missing).

I have not changed anything in the mkfile. I just do the first
steps and I am happy to come so far today.

I found these too files for the kernel (il):

il.c
ip.il.h

I hope these files are the right one for the kernel. Tomorrow I
will
look how I configure a kernel in Plan9.

Many thanks for your help!
