Hello 9fans!<br>
<br>
I&#39;ve tried to install Plan 9 on a 64 bit Windows 7 using Virtual PC, since I&#39;ve read that a related bug was fixed and noone tried it.<br>

I just announced it worked like 2 weeks ago.<div class="im"><br>

Actually, after the fourth tentative (after creating a fossil partition a bit smaller than the fixed size hd) I got rc starting by logging with the glenda user.<br>
<br>
BUT, after the rio start I got the attached error.<br>

I never had any problems starting up Plan 9 with rio, heck I never had any trouble at all. You sure you have everything set up right on your end?<br>

I&#39;ll use QEMU as I read it should work, but I hope this feedback could help.<br>
