thanks for the tip, I'll try that and keep you posted.
but...
little problem there...
I just remembered, I tried to use the LiveCD mode, but my mouse wasn't
properly detected. Which is kind of strange as it is correctly
detected when I do a standard installation.
So it might be harder to draw a window ...
Any shortcut for that ?
(yeah, by total newbie on Plan 9, I meant really total newbie :-) )
I'll have a look anyway.
thanks
