Hi all,
I tried to install Plan9 from a CD obtained from the image on the site.

It seems installation instructions
(http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/installation_instructions/
index.html)refers to an older version: kfs is now deprecated and no
info on fossil or fossil+venti installation.
then trying to install all options fails with different problems:

1) fossil+venti (default install) stop after prepdisk menu made
partitions with the following unrecoverable message:
"hey you finished everything! not supposed to happen"
No other messages, in any of the windows.

2) fossil only and kfs install fail because installr cannot allow to
chose the CD device as image source.

Al suggestion welcome


Ciao and thanks

Vincenzo Volpe
