You have to copy the discrib on top of a plan 9 one,
then configure it. In fact, I'm not sure, but there might be a full
distribution on our web page.
There are detailed manual pages (and I think there were more
detailed instructions on this list time ago). See intro and booting, IIRC.

If this is not enough feel free to ask and I'll try to help.
