9front works fine in vmware. I've never had a problem (including a very recent install at work). How exactly does it fail in your case? aiju On Thu, 1 Sep 2016, Adriano Verardo wrote: In the last two years I've very little used Plan9. All appls I made for clients work, solved all problem

Personally, I don't use Plan9, or even p9p, to get stuff done. I just like to look at the code from time to time. I'm with Carmack on Plan9 circa 1997: " It has an achingly elegant internal structure, but a user interface that has been asleep for the past decade." Add a couple of decades to that.

I am currently collecting funds for a production run of a Zynq based board built specifically with Plan 9 in mind. It has a dual-core ARM CPU and a Xilinx FPGA. We are running 9front, but labs and 9atom would likely work fine too. You can preorder it for $500, buy a glenda or aijuboard

. Or is this intended behaviour? I have verified that 8c exhibits the bug, but have not checked the other compilers. gcc does not seem to have this bug. Julius Schmidt

Hardware programming is fun. Side effects include nausea and vomiting. you're doing it wrong. :-) - erik Just run Plan 9 on the hardware. Who wanted to create Plan 9 from 8-bit space? Let's do it for AVR. Then mount LEDs and the like... aiju

Perhaps I'm getting this all wrong, but to me this seems like an interesting idea, especially if you consider the impact of being near the files on some classically considered computationally stressy tasks like compiling (esp. with kencc). So moving the code near the data definitely seems worth
