Re: [9fans] install failing to detect SATA disk
No /dev/sd* directory. I only found a /dev/sdctl. On a side note, I got plan 9 installed on a VBox VM - had to install an older version of VBox and use IDE controller for the virtual disk. Mouse worked during install but not after that.

Re: [9fans] install failing to detect SATA disk
Got mouse back on the VBox VM - had to uncheck Enable absolute pointing device under Settings-Systems-Motherboard. Back to the Plan 9 install issue on native h/w.. does Plan 9 support SATA controllers? My VBox VM also needed the HDD to be on the IDE controller.

Re: [9fans] install failing to detect SATA disk
Back to the Plan 9 install issue on native h/w.. does Plan 9 support SATA controllers? My VBox VM also needed the HDD to be on the IDE controller. it does support ahci controllers. vbox causes problems for a lot of oses, and that's probablly a bigger project. i'm going to guess this is a power management issue. the ahci driver was written before the standard, and thus has been a little slow in catching up. could you try downloading 9atom, which is quite close to the distribution (http://ftp.quanstro.net/other/9atom.iso.bz2)? it has a few power management wiggles that may fix your issue. - erik
[9fans] c compiler bug
i don't think this should link, since wrongaddr calls fn with an Outer* not an Inner*. #include u.h #include libc.h typedef struct Inner Inner; typedef struct Outer Outer; struct Inner { int x; }; struct Outer { charbuf[0x1000]; Inner; }; void wrongaddr(Outer *o) { static void fn(Outer*); fn(o); } void main(void) { Outer *o; o = malloc(sizeof *o); memset(o, 0, sizeof *o); print(addr o %#p\n, o); print(addr o.x %#p\n, o-x); wrongaddr(o); } static void fn(Inner *i) { print(fn addr i.x %#p\n, i-x); } ; 6.cbug addr o 0x4018f0 addr o.x0x4028f0 fn addr i.x 0x4018f0
