Hello,
I found the annoucement for Shiva plug support
(http://marc.info/?l=9fans&m=125849399830547&w=2) and I was wondering
what progress has been made with the port. I looked in /sys/src/9/kw
and it looks like there has been more recent development, but could
someone give me a quick summary of what has been accomplished.
Also, would this port work on the GuruPlug Server
(http://marc.info/?l=9fans&m=125849399830547&w=2)? I looks like it
has almost the exact same hardware as the Shiva.
I'd just like to know the port status before I purchase one for use
with Plan9. Thanks.

i have several (guru and sheeva) running plan9. they're configured as
cpu's and boot from a file server (x86 laptop auth+cpu+fs).
i've had the most problems with power supplies on both models; going
by my sample size, they have a 25% combined failure rate.

I have noticed this too on my sheeva. I ended up rolling my own on it. It seems to get to hot when running Plan 9. I don't have this issue with the default configuration though.

I've had 100% failure rate (sample size = 1) of the host usb connector,
while attempting a demo at IWP9 -- seriously embarrassing.
