you forgot the other trick, you either disable the cdrom
or put it in scsi emulation mode.

Okay... I know this is hashed out on the wiki, and has a long track
recorded in 9fans, but why is it that we can boot from CD on VMWare
and then install but then never boot from the installed system? Yes,
echo hwaccel off > /dev/vgactl
is required. Yes it is set, but the first reboot and fossil (&|
venti) will just hang and nothing happens to get into a usable
system. I do need to read up on rdb usage, though that gets a little
complex w/o an actual serial console.
Is there something that can just be copied over from the plan9.iso
that would let the system boot and be usable under VMWare?
