Hiho,
during Installation under vmware the step "Setup network
configuration" -> syname with the default "cirno" did not find "/n/
newfs/lib" -> directory entry not found

What can I do?

/n/newfs is the mountpoint of the filesystem where you install into,
so the copydist step probably failed to copy everything. most likely
because everybody makes ther cache partitions too small.
the cache has to hold all the data that the filesystem needs to store
between dumps!
i gave it a 12GB virtual harddrive in my vmware test machine just for
safe estimate.

Hi Cinap,
that was the solution, my virtual drive was to small.
The installation went fine. Such an easy to install, provided your
drive is big enough. ;-)
But now....
I have some understanding problems:
What is for 9front the difference between a terminal and a cpu
installation (this s asked during installation)
After install and a new boot, I can only log in as Glenda? Is Glenda
root?
Okay, now I have my first steps with rio. I love RIO. ;-)
Have fun!

A (standalone) terminal is just a single standalone machine.
A CPU server is a machine where users log in and work on.
Read /sys/doc/9.ps ;)

Yes, you can only log in as Glenda.
See http://code.google.com/p/plan9front/wiki/admin for creating more
users.
No, Glenda is not root, the concept of a superuser is foreign to Plan 9.
All direct hardware access is restricted to the so-called hostowner.
On terminals the hostowner is whoever logged in.
On CPU servers the hostowner is specified as a configuration option, the
default is glenda.
There are two groups, sys and adm, which define users with elevated
privileges.
Users in sys may change system files and users in adm may change
authentication data.
(This is just because sys is the group of all system files and adm is
the group of /adm)

okay, a CPU Server is with login prompt and a terminal has autologin.
How can I read postscript files? I dont find a command for that.
