After installing plan9 I managed to delete the plan9.ini file.  I also made
a mistake while installing, I chose to let plan9 have all the free space
remaining - about 25Gig.

This machine has winxp on the first partition and I'd like to install grub2
as a boot loader to choose between winxp, plan9, and a varying flavor of
linux or bsd.

Query 1: Will plan9 play nice with grub2?

Query 2: Can I "safely" use gparted on the plan9 partition and shrink it
down, or will it complain, vomit, and generally refuse to be budged?

Query 3: Should I just reinstall plan9, fixing the partition problem and
the plan9.ini problem?  I'll learn less that way, but then again I can
install 9atom instead...

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Terry.
