I am trying to install (from plan9.iso) with configfs:
fossil+venti
At system install step (task to do: copydist),
the process is painfully slow with continuously
repeated messages (of type):
entire cache is busy, 2999 dirty waking flush thread
cache is ok again
...
Is this normal (6% installed in 15 minutes)?

This happened to me on the last CD install attempt to.
I eventually went back to the "floppy method" and all was well.
I think it might be that my CD drive isn't well supported and my
SouthBridge isn't really supported by Plan 9 causing DMA failures?
Hard to say..
