Subject: [9fans] Best Emulator to Run Plan9 in?
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 33c19a6a-ead0-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

Hi,

I have just subscribed to this list. I am planning ahead to experiment 
with Plan9, but I want to set it up under an emulator (the host system 
is Linux with 2.2.16 kernel). I saw some messages from last year 
mentioning plan9 running in QEMU. Another emulator candidate would be 
Bochs. Could anyone please share their recent experience regarding 
running Plan9 in an emulator, are there any serious issues, etc.

I am looking into using an opensource emulator, so VMWARE would not be a 
candidate for me.

Thank you.
