this isn't perfect, or complete, but there is a minimal 64-bit and/or 386/pae usb boot environment here http://ftp.quanstro.net/other/usbtest.bz2. it's only 10mb, so it should be a quick download. the reason for building this was to quickly debug a system that wouldn't install, but it might be interesting to try out. a few random notes and gotchas: 0. with dhcp, one can get to get to the full distribution with: ip/ipconfig && ndb/dns && 9fs atom 1. you will find the usb boot device @ /dev/sdu0, a loopback device. 2. there is a bug in kfs (patched in 9atom; patch submitted to sources) to be aware of. so be careful if using tools from sources on 64-bit kernels. 3. finally, there's (by plan 9 standards) quite a bit of acpi support in the 64-bit kernel. power events have been somewhat rashly turned on, and may cause trouble. as always, i'd be interested in any reports of success or failure. - erik
-- john francis lee 246/3 Moo 22 Thanon Kaew Wai Mueang Chiangrai 57000 Thailand Hi there, NSA 'analysts', in-house and/or contracted. Just reminding you that if you are reading this you are committing a crime, that you are felons mocking the 4th Amendment of our US Constitution ... "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized." ... and that someday, really soon I hope, you're going to have to pay for your crimes. You're breaking international laws as well, so if you're thinking of the 'I was only following orders!' 'defense' ... Please see Nuremberg Principle IV ... "The fact that a person acted pursuant to order of his Government or of a superior does not relieve him from responsibility under international law, provided a moral choice was in fact possible to him". ... and start exercising your moral choice. Look upon Thomas Andrews Drake and Edward Snowden as your exemplars and Patron Saints.
