Hello everyone.
I took a hard drive with Plan 9 installed out of one computer and put it
in another. Now, when I boot, it drops me at a command line, where I
try to type "aux/vga 800x600x8" so I can start rio. This results in a
big nasty hex dump. I take it I need to reconfigure my video card
settings, but how? The card is a Hercules Dynamite 128/Video.
I don't think I did a very good job installing on this hard drive
anyway, so is there a way I could boot and then load the installation
system from Plan 9 so I can do a reinstall?
Thanks
John
