The original message only included the link parenthetically, to illustrate vulnerabilities introduced by UEFI. As in, "Here's one example of the problem." It was certainly not introducing a technical discussion of either UEFI or Trickbot. Chill. On 3/26/21 2:20 PM, hiro wrote: the only

Re: [9fans] problem with installing plan9 from USB disk image

I see that 9front has had some UEFI boot support for 6 years. I use an earlier version of their iplpxe on my 64-bit cpu servers (not booting 9front). I did use the iplfat and ipliso as well to boot other kernels. When I've got a moment I might diff to see what changes I made. On Fri, Mar 26, 2021

I've not tried this, but I think an easier way to play with Plan 9 on Windows 10 might be to use Hyper-V and have the VM boot up from plan9.iso file. On Fri, Mar 26, 2021 at 12:54 AM wrote: > > I've uncompressed .bz2 but the problem is burning the .ISO file. And I also > have some problem. I

Re: [9fans] problem with installing plan9 from USB disk image

I've uncompressed .bz2 but the problem is burning the .ISO file. And I also have some problem. I don't use any GNU or Linux related stuffs. Most of the ISO burner are from GUN. I used the one that comes with Windows and also tried Rufus(though I don't like GNU related stuffs) but failed.

Re: [9fans] problem with installing plan9 from USB disk image

The trouble here isn't so much Windows as failure to realise that a compressed image isn't what one needs to write to the CD. I don't know what tools are available on Windows to uncompress .bz2 files. Once that hurdle is overcome, I have little doubt that wrting to CD (or to a USB drive) will be

Re: [9fans] problem with installing plan9 from USB disk image

Have you tried downloading the archive that contains the CD iso image, https://9p.io/plan9/download/plan9.iso.bz2, and burning that onto a CD or USB drive? If your hardware is supported, https://9p.io/wiki/plan9/Supported_PC_hardware/index.html, you would be able to boot the system off the CD/USB

Re: [9fans] problem with installing plan9 from USB disk image

Re: [9fans] problem with installing plan9 from USB disk image

> I want to install Plan9. Can you please tell me the right way to do that. The traditional way is from the CD image. If you expand plan9.iso.bz2 with the bunzip2 utility to produce plan9.iso, and make a CD of that expanded image, you should have a bootable installer.
