I'm glad the images work for you, and I understand wanting a default copy. However, if you boot 9queen and choose option "1" the boot takes you to the standard environment and the system should behave in the normal way. It is also possible to boot the original 9pcf kernel instead of 9pcram. The 9queen image was made directly from the current Bell Labs clean install from the .iso, and you can ignore the ANTS-related software entirely if you wish. I'm sorry I can't offer to upload a completely clean copy of the image but I believe you can use the 9queen as a standard install without the added software interfering. You would want to change/delete the default password of "rootless" though by resetting the nvram. I'm not sure what the issue with your install would be, because it seems like if the Qemu images are booting and working for you, the install should work ok too. If you boot a qemu image, are you able to save files to the qemu disk normally, so read/write inside the VM works normally, it is just that installation fails? Ben Kidwell "mycroftiv"
