K3b actually said 721.7 GB. As in Gigabytes. So, I've downloaded, burned, and tried to install the following iso images:
9front-2688.28a9914426a3.iso (I used Brasero to burn the cd, no size complaints) +9atom.iso 9atom.iso 9atom.nboot.iso plan9.iso None actually booted, but some got farther then others. Results: plan9.iso - "PBSR...EI" <---- as far as it got and froze 9atom.nboot.iso - circular reboot +9atom.iso - circular reboot 9atom.iso - booted from cd, got to choose option 2(boot from cd), these are the last few lines: ehci 0xe0001000: port3 didn't reset within 500ms; status 0x1101 ehci 0xe0001000: port4 didn't reset within 500ms; status 0x1101 usb/kb... usb/kb... root is from(il, tcp, local)[local!#S/sdD0/data]: cpu0: spurious interupt 39, last 11 I hit enter after about 3 minutes of no action... kfs...version...time... init: starting /bin/rc Nothing else ever happened, even after lots of key-presses. 9front.iso - never gave me an option to run from cd or install, it just started launching itself. Several screens of info and it stop on this line: bootargs is (tcp, il, local!device)[local!dev/sdD0/data] _ <----blinking cursor, doa! I burned all the iso images with K3b, with the exception of 9front. I used brasero for that and brasero did not complain about file size and volume size not matching. However, when I open 9front up in K3b, it does complain that the filesize is 530.9 MiB, while the volume size is reported as 1 TiB. Gorka - The reason I asked about whether or not I should be unzipping the iso is the plan9 install instruction have a line thus: boot from: sdC1!cdboot!9pcflop.gz I realize that's probably a floppy sized gzipped boot image on the cd, my question made me feel like a dolt, but I don't mind that too much. Anyway, next steps? Terry.
