I'm trying to install Plan9 on a computer (256MB ram, Intel Celeron 2.00Ghz,
160GB hard disk). At the installation proccess, I go up to part disk. Then
it shows me that it made the new Plan9 partition (2.45GB), so I type 'w' and
'q'. Then I get this:

 Preparing menu... read: i/o error

and it prompts me again to partdisk, and it never ends. I really don't think
that this is the hard disks problem, it's a barely used 160GB Maxtor drive.
Has anyone had any problems similar to this? Could it be because some of the
hardware? (Unlikely, but...)

Regards,
Yosyp
