That sounds very interesting! I packaged 9vx in AUR (
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=49816) and tried to put up a
wiki ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/9vx). I have done some
rather stupid suggestions about how to deal with permissions and other
stuff like that...

What I would like to know is if you can boot a plan9 system from iso via
9vx as "persistent" partition whereas changes are saved to another
directory (so basically setting up a union mount between the iso and a
directory) - alternatively specifying an alternative path for $home
using 9vx booting from an iso.
