Hi! I've downloaded the Plan9 iso from http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/download.html and tried to test the live cd. It wasn't really possible, at first the boot manager won't really react (the trick seems to wait a long time...) and then some error appears. But since I decided to install it on VMWare on Linux, this doesn't matter so much. There in the installation menu (textinst) I select all the default options and I end up (when doing copydist) with: cacheAllocBlock: xxx1 disk is full and so on... I also made a test doubling each partition's size (exept for nvram) and I ended up with some error that told me IIRC that for my large disc FAT16 doesn't work out, so I would have to use FAT32. Trying to increment each partition lowly (starting from the default size) doesn't help either - moreover the error can even occur early with larger sizes. BTW the VMWare image has a size of 800MB (initially the image size was smaller) and the - default - partition sizes are the following: 9fat 100 MB nvram 512 Bytes fossil 200 MB swap 100 MB Can anyone help me?
