Hello,
I'm one of the other people trying to get plan 9 on the same VPS host
provider. I've gotten past that hang. Some haphazard print statements
narrowed the hang down to the e820 init function in memory.c. So to
work around, setting either *noe820scan=1 or *norealmode=1 in

I hadn't tried it. I was under the impression that 9atom was tried by
the OP of this thread. My plan today is to go through with the install
and see what happens. I'll try your 9load next to see if I can boot
sans excess options.
The support guy set up a cron job to update the floppy
yes, this started as 8i from russ. it was renamed to realemu after i
made it into a fileserver providing /dev/realmode and
/dev/realmodemem. this way i dont have to reimplement aux/vga's vesa
code and it can be used as drop in replacement. (just start it before
running aux/vga)
mkfile is fixed
have you tried the 9load from 9atom? i moved the e820 scan
to before 9load switches from real mode, which should be
safer. ftp://ftp.quanstro.net/other/^(9pxeload 9load)

I did indeed ask them to configure 9atom.iso as the CD-ROM and got
the same results as with plan9.iso. I trusted that the image was switched
but I'm not sure how I could verify.
i wasn't assuming that the two setups were identical. let me
know if that's a bad assumption.

Hi all
apparently mac os x turns off wifi when it decides to go low power. It
can a happily recover most connections that do not require a steady
flow of data.
I have not tested it but I dont think it turns off wifi when torrent
or ssh is connected to a host. Drawterm dies with a sysfatal error,
Is this how 9p currently behaves or is there some settings somewhere
that will help prevent it? Is there a thread that have already
discussed
it's actually tcp that's timing out, not 9p.
this is how almost all connection-based protocols behave.
typically there are keep-alive packets set every

9atom's 9load prints %d e820 entries on boot. is that number 0?
found 7 e8s0 entries
Then it freezes.

it's not the e820 code, then. it's either falling over initializing the
console, or it's falling over probing devices

You don't need to mess with the wifi. Just do
$ sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.always_keepalive=0

This setting works for ssh, xterm etc. between *BSD/Mac and I
think Linux (Windows forcibly terminates everything when the
link goes down -- there may be a setting to disable keepalives
but I try not to know more about Windows).
From RFC1122:

mkfile is fixed now. will install itself into /$objtype/bin/aux/realemu
and install realemu (8) manpage.
impovement on the manpage is welcome as my english is not so good :)
Again, I'm delaying testing because I need to install a different
video card in the available hardware, but I'm
I used to work with David Mills, back long ago. He was one of the
original Internet Buzzards, a really great guy. One of the many things
he invented was NTP.

I routinely leave ssh, xterm etc. alive for weeks on end and
my macbookpro puts itself to sleep a few times a day! Even
when I used to take my laptop to work, no connexion broke as
long as avoided accidentally typing in the window (which would
generate traffic).
now that's robust.
