It also seems that I can boot only with diskette's '9load' (then loading image 'sdC0!9fat!9pcdisk' ). When I boot from harddisk (using its 'sdC0!9fat!9load' and the image 'sdC0!9fat!9pcdisk'), rio does not start. Files 'plan9.ini' on boot diskette and on 9fat partition are identical. What else may differ in these ways of booting ? I tried to do so: a: 9fat: mv /n/9fat/9load /n/9fat/9load.1 cp /n/a:/9load /n/9fat/ but that did not help. Thanks for any suggestions. -- mwg@alkar.net
