Subject: [9fans] starting to code/work on '9

Message-ID: <8vp8t9$s0s$1@nread2.inwind.it> (raw)
I never posted on this ng so I don't know why use the [9fans] tag in the
subject (but sounds great so I'll use it =))
For some weeks I saw for the first time the plan9 working an a pc x86 and
I started working on it... simply fantastic :), minimalist graphic (great
pastel colors ;)), the sam editor is really great and the OS structure
promises very well so I tryed to download and then install plan9 on my
x86 box.. but here starts the agony :((..
sound works, graphic also.. everything started perfecly on the install..
(also my fastethernet card works correctly!!!)
the damn thing that make me crazy are the scsi drivers.. ONLY 3 drivers
supported ? And obviously not mine... *gargh*.. plan9 setup hangs when
selecting destination disk telling me:
"no avaible disks"
I've tryed all the three drivers (spending one day to download all possible
combinations for boot floppyes) on these 2 controllers: aha2940uw and
asc29160 (both aic9xxx compatible but unsopported :(( ) so on my all-scsi
box nothing works. Maybe it's in project to make a driver for these
controllers? Or there's a way to build a plan driver without having plan9
installed?
bye all you luky people that have plan9 working on your own machines
*sniff*.. not me
(only god knows how many imprecations I said today)
