Hi list!
I'd like to build a server to install a virtualized grid with Plan 9,
using XEN.
(The dom0 will be a Debian)
Here: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/OSCompatibility
Plan 9 support for domU installation is said "currently broken".
Is it right? Anyone has experience installing the last version of Plan 9
on XEN 3.0?
If so, any suggestion?
Thanks you all!
Giacomo

virtualization is fine. But my recommendation is that you use lguest
or kvm -- not xen. Xen is painful to set up and run.

I KVM plan 9 on x86-64, only issue is drawterm doesn't work so well on
the host.

lguest supports plan 9 guests. I use it regularly.
x86_64? what about using 9vx? Works well for me in that mode.
