rpi kernel silliness

rpi kernel silliness

[Julius Schmidt]

why do we have pif and picpuf kernels when you can just use service= in 
plan9.ini? there are also some random stupid changes in pif vs picpuf 
(like gpio is gone in the cpu server)

Regarding this, I sent a mail to sirnewton_01, but my mail was rejected due to our network 
provider’s problem.

I’ll write here it instead (sorry sirnewton_01).

It’s danger to use new 9pif image for pi3 module.
We discussed a problem of strange behavior of keyboard input, and guessed some
problem in usb driver for the rpi3.  I’m using 9pif2 image on root from tcp mode.

I found this does not restricted only to keyboard, but extended to MicroSD Ram itself.
I corrupted two new MicroSD ram cards when I tried to wrote a large file such as
new 9pif image.  This is very dangerous, because the damaged card cannot be
repaired.

PS. of course, it’s very dangerous to use it as cpu server. :-)
