I downloaded the latest plan9.iso.bz2 from the web, and when I
installed it everything went ok, except that after rebooting I got
only the term% prompt and no graphical mode.  I have installed Plan9
on this hardware several times (earlier versions from a week or more
ago).  Also the floppy install had no problems bringing up the
graphical mode.

So I think this might be a glitch with some recent update.

This is the error message:

rio: can't open display: initdisplay: /dev/draw/new: no frame buffer
init: rc exit status: rio 12: display open

init: starting /bin/rc
term%

Has anyone else installing a recent Plan 9 ( in the last week or so )
had a similar problem ?
