Subject: [9fans] Panic when booting for setup

Hello,

I think the first thing I should say is that I've never seen Plan9
before. 
I've got the ISO-image of the actual Plan9 release from the Plan9
homepage and now tried to install it under VMware (Linux 2.4.18).
Therefore I configured VMware to use the ISOimage as CD-ROM drive,
mounted the image as loop device and configured VMware to use
'bootdisk.img' from the CD's root as floppy disk. In VMware's 'BIOS' I
switched Floppy A: to '2.88MB 3 1/2"', but when booting I get the
following message:

,---------------------------------------------------.

`---------------------------------------------------'

And VMware stops doing anything :(

Is there any way to install this nice OS or can anybody say, what's the
reason for this message? 

TIA

Regards, 

awiese
