Now I must install Plan9 in a VM. I'm testing VMware, but it is not a c= onstraint.
The Bell distro work fine, all others I tried fail during install.
And, worse than this, I see just now that Bell non longer support Plan9 sin= ce Jan 2015.

So, what's the best Win7-32/64 VM product for Plan9 ? What Plan9 ?

Thanks in advance
