Hi. Sorry for my English :-/
I'm newly interested in plan9 stuffs.
I want to know what would be the differences between plan9 on
virtual machine and plan9port. Can someone kindly explain it?

the differences are quite fundamental.
p9p tries to add some plan9 bits like acme to other systems. when
there is a conflict or there's an abstraction the host can't handle,
it is not supported. so namespaces don't work. if you're looking
for a slightly nicer $os or $os with acme, this works fine. if you
want a plan 9 experience, you will be disappointed.
it's going to be tautology, but plan 9 in a vm box is exactly the same
code running the same way as plan 9 on real hardware, except the
hardware is virtual.
