Hello,
I retried cpu kernel with only usb flash drive.
this time I have finally succeeded in automatic start service.
the kernel is based on 9front.
MB is GA-G31M-S2L.
the MB is old model and very slow in polling usb even if I set
*acpi=1
in plan9.ini.
my nvram setting is
nvram=/dev/sdU6.0/nvram
and we must find the value 6.0 by experiment:
first, without nobootprompt and then
nobootprompt=tcp
I have not good result for bell-labs version.
thanks all.
