This is not 9atom, but a bootable Plan 9 USB image can be found here: http://www.9legacy.org/download/plan9-usb.img.bz2 It doesn't contain the kernel with the installer, but you might install Plan 9 manually by doing something like: http://www.9legacy.org/9legacy/doc/fossil/disk It shouldn't be hard to add the installation bzroot to the kernel booting from USB, and you don't even need the Fossil file system. -- David du Colombier
