I've never been able to get plan9, 9atom, or 9front to install under

virtualization.  I'd really like to get one of the above to work with
virtualbox.  Just my two cent's.

    Last when I installed 9atom I had to do it in virtualbox and then
    convert that
    image for qemu. The 9atom iso failed during boot (after selecting
    boot/install
    option).

9front works in virtualbox. qemu also can run without the virtualization extensions.
