apologies for the noise... please disregard.

Subject: [9fans]  latest plan9.iso
 
Anyone tried to install from a very recent plan9.iso?

I just downloaded the latest one this morning.  I'm trying to install into a VMware ESXi virtual machine.  I installed another just about a week ago, and did not encounter any trouble.  I frequently have to plug in the correct SCSI device for the CD, but this time, I get the following message before the "boot from:" prompt:

cpu0: 2796MHz PentiumIV/Xeon loop 47254
apm ax=f000 cx=f000 dx=40 di=ffff ebx=564f esi=-1
no ethernet interfaces recognized
bus dev type vid  did intl memory

0  18/0 02 00 00 1022 2000  11  0:00001481 128
Unknown boot device: sdD0!cdboot!9pcflop.gz
Boot devices: fd0
boot from:

I can specify sdC0!cdboot!9pcflop.gz, and it'll load the installer, but it doesn't detect the virtual hard drive.  In the past, the "official" plan9.iso has had no trouble on ESXi.

I'm downloading 9atom as I type this, but just wanted to see if anyone else has had trouble with the latest "official" iso...

Many thanks!

-Ben
