Charon is part of the Inferno distribution - you
need Inferno to run it.  However you don't need the
Inferno CD.  The Plan 9 Inferno port, including Charon
and all limbo application code is available as a free
download.

See http://cgi.www.vitanuova.com/cgi-bin/www.vitanuova.com/idown.pl

Once past the 'I accept the licence' page you will see a page
offering the various download files.
For Plan 9 you'll need inferno.tgz and Plan9.tgz

Chris.
