This is intended to be used when you are booting from a read-only media like a cdrom, where you can't edit plan9.ini. And would help people during the install, because sometimes you need *norealmode=, *noe820scan=, installurl=, etc to make it work. you need to have "*uservars=" in your plan9.ini, and you'll get a prompt at boot time. /n/sources/contrib/fgb/9load.tgz || http://www.tip9ug.jp/who/fgb/9load.tgz Federico G.Benavento --- /bin/fortune: See no evil; hear no evil; speak no evil.
