Whether it will be the standard installation, 9atom, or something else is not very important. I just want to try Plan 9 on a non-vm environment.

i booted a 1005ha from usb the other day, but there wasn't a driver for the ethernet, which put a stop to actual use. (i have other hardware, so it wasn't a priority.) you can't always tell what will work in a different model though. i use 9front myself, it's well-maintained. it works particularly well on many thinkpads, if you have one of those.
