Re: [9fans] native install

hello

Seems I fell again in the bios ahci set up trap. Checking the BIOS options seems it was in Enhaced Ide mode instead of Enhaced AHCI mode.

Now the iso works perfectly. For those of you looking for a "modern" PC to run plan9, this is what i have:

* asus P6T SE
* Core i7 (4 core works)
* 4GB DDR3 RAM
* ati hd5750 (works in vesa 1280x960x8)
* hard disk WD caviar 300 GB
* realtek GB network (works)

9atom from this weekend boots and install with no problems setting up AHCI mode first.

slds.
