Hello
I just need to boot the kenel, this machine is rented, i can't change
any hardware configuration, i can just try to get plan9 running there
with the help of qemu. . .
I installed a fossil terminal, now i need to instruct 9load to read
the kernel from /dev/sdB0, and if the kernel loads, i need to instruct
it to use 9grid.es as the fs and auth.
I will post the results of these tests if they are possitive.
thanks!

Hi !
Use 9P instead of iSCSI. In My setup, I use small IDE Flash drives
(128Mb) They works just fine ! :)

Hola,
Has anyone done this?
I have access to a cheap hardware which could be a nice plan9 cpu
server, the only thing does not work
is the iSCSI disk (or i think so, look at the lspci below)
I suppose the bios of the machine supports booting from iSCSI, so i
think i could put a 9load or
9pxeload there, but 9load is not able to load a kernel from iSCSI
and i suppose i can't instruct 9pxeload
to boot from specific server without using bootp/dhcp to boot, right?
any tips on how to make this little thing work? (besides writing
iSCSI support for 9load)
here is he lspci output (it is a dualcore atom 1.6ghz intel board,
1gb of ram):
