Previously I had a working Plan9 (3rd. Ed.) installation on my desktop, which had Pentium 4 processor. I am unable to boot from the same Plan9 CD, and even the 4th. Ed. CD, on my laptop. I get this error message:
PBS1... Plan9 from Bell Labs ELCR: 0C98 pcirouting: South bridge 8086, 2919 not found. plan9.ini probe ... probing floppy ... probing bios ... probing CD ... probing sd ... no plan9.ini cpu0: 2189MHz Core 2/Xeon bios (usb) loading disabled Boot devices: fd0 boot from:_ It stays put at this prompt with the blinking cursor. What could be the problem? BTW, this page (http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Mailing_lists/index.html) suggests not posting to this group directly, but the 9fans link (http://mail.9fans.net/listinfo/9fans) doesn't work so I wrote here. The page is outdated, maybe?
