Hello, I'm a member of "Xenoppix" Developing Team. We could released Plan9 on Xenoppix with help of Dr. Yamanashi. We thank him for his help and ML announce.
Xenoppix is a kind of "KNOPPIX" which include a virtual machine monitor "Xen". KNOPPIX sets up device drivers and offers us X window System. GUI of GuestOS is mapped to the X11 using VNC full-screen mode. So it looks GuestOS boots standalone. The GuestOS can work as a server because of VIF-Bridge of Xen. Current Guest OSes are Plan9 and NetBSD. They are selectable at boot time. The HP has simple explanation and snapshot-figure of Xenoppix boot with Plan9 and NetBSD. http://unit.aist.go.jp/itri/knoppix/xen/index-en.html The DVD iso image is offered Bittorrent and FTP. Torrent file http://unit.aist.go.jp/itri/knoppix/xen/knoppix_v4.0_20050608_linuxtag_xen-20050912+IPAFont.iso.torrent Take care the requirement to boot GuestOS. Network connection must be on "eth0" Interface. (*** Important ***) Because Host KNOPPIX and Guest OS must get IP address from DHCP via "eth0". Desirable memory is more than 512MB. Please try and have fun. ------ suzaki >>From: YAMANASHI Takeshi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >>Subject: [9fans] Xenoppix and Plan 9 >> >>As the name (Xenoppix) implies, Plan 9 now runs more >>independently of underlying hardware.
