The Ken FS (including Erik's version) hardware support is much more limited
than that of Plan 9's, which already is quite limited. Neither USB nor Flash
drive booting work on original Ken FS, and I highly doubt either would work
with Erik's revisions either.

Considering the use cases and purposes of Ken FS, I doubt it's such a good
use of time to work on that.


Best,
