Hi
I'm trying to install Plan9 on a new PC. I've got 3 partitions. Windows
ME hogs the first two and I'm trying to install Plan 9 on the third
partition (its about 30 GB).
The installation of Plan 9 goes through quite successfully. I have no
problems with the VGA (ATI Xpert 98) and unpack proceeds well.
Finally at bootsetup I created a boot floppy and I also opted to boot
from the disk. This does not work at all because the Windows ME idea of a
boot record may be different from Windows 98 or NT.
However when I try to boot from the boot floppy it hangs after it says
its booting the image from sdC0. The message I get is panic: kernel iunlock.
I've looked at the code in code in /sys/src/boot/pc and I cannot find this
message though there seem to be iunlocks associated with ethernet drivers.
I have a 3COM PCMCIA 3C905C lan card. Would this cause a problem? The
CPU is a 1.2 Gig Athlon.
