I'm not sure why it doesn't work last time(maybe I was doing something wrong). But now I have several more questions about this image: At first it seems that not every plan 9 programs are avalible. For example man doesn't work becouse it cannot run /bin/troff. Also the "page" program seems not to be avalible here. Second question: how can I mount pendrive in Plan 9. I've tried to follow steps provided by [1] but it seems that there aren't any binaries in /bin/usb directory. What is going wrong? [1] http://man.cat-v.org/plan_9/4/usbdisk
