I seem to remember a problem with booting Plan 9 in Virtualbox after
the install; you have to disable the CDROM device to make it boot. I
think it was Virtualbox.
VMware has that problem. Caught me a few times.

To throw my experiences in:
I've installed bell labs plan9 in qemu-kvm. What really sped up the
installation was having the disk image in a tmpfs, otherwise the
copying to the hard disk took hours. With tmpfs it was finished in some
minutes. After moving this image to the harddisk the plan9

After a long hiatus, I'd like to get back to experimenting with Plan
9. I have an Ubuntu Linux laptop with AMD's virtualization extensions
supported by the CPU, so I figure my best bet is one of the umpteen
virtualization tools. Which is best supported by Plan 9 — virtualbox,
qemu, or something
If you're serious about booting a 64-bit os you need NIX. But you're
not going to get graphics.

hello
i tried to boot it with simnow, but the network helper crashes on my
installation, and i can´t load nix via pxe. (not sure if that´s
related to the fact that i have an intel processor and in the manual
they say amd is requeried :-?)
I´ll try to do it with vmware one of these days

today's nix is quite raw. unless you're working on nix itself,
you'll be happier with plan 9.
Please, (b)log the path: I'd like to play again with plan9... but I
completely forgot how I had configured qemu-kvm (and I remember that I had
had some trouble with the network on my debian)... :-(

Is NIX the only distribution for amd64, then? I just want to play
around in user space: learn Go, use Unicode in C, c., c. Would I
There's confusion here, and I am partly to blame ...
if you get googlecode.com/p/nix-os
you'll get a file system image that will be usable on a 32-bit
machine. We use it with 9vx. That image includes all the bits you need
to build and boot a NIX kernel. The intent of this distro is to allow
But, if you want more than one core, be sure you
install the CL I sent (which has not yet been applied).
I'll commit it later today so you could get SMP without
applying any CL by hand.
I use it as follows:

cd nix-os
