Hi! Sorry for the confusion! It's easier for me to compile a kernel in linux than understand the basics of Plan 9. So, yes you're right, Plan 9 is different. But I won't give up so easy so thanks for your patience with a 15+ years linux user trying to grasp something completely different. Thanks Steve. I'll give it some more time tomorrow since I feel kind of shot right now. Busy day and a lot of travelling during the past weekend.
