QEMU Win32 binaries eventually cut the knot for me. Unfortunately, it is
morbidly slow, especially on disk operations (it took like 50 minutes to
copy the distro). And the KQEMU kernel driver would not load on my x64
Windows. Any ideas?
All in all it has been a step forward. Now I have a limping but functional
Plan 9 installation. Time to learn... ouch!
