Re: [9fans] Plan 9 image for Google Compute Engine?
Cool! is there a virtio ethernet driver in the works for 9front? anyone know what flavor is mischief's version? -Skip On Fri, Jun 6, 2014 at 5:16 PM, cinap_len...@felloff.net wrote: DONE, now beer. http://code.google.com/p/plan9front/source/detail?r=2f51489d42116c85159dc1649ab82cec9a766542 -- cinap
Re: [9fans] Plan 9 image for Google Compute Engine?
hello, mischief here. it is 'in the works'. there's some bugs to be squashed. i'm using the legacy virtio interface. it doesn't perform very great right now, usually slower than igbe, but that may not matter if you can't get igbe at all. it also seems to crash on old (meaning, 1.0) qemu. i've been testing on 1.7.0 and 2.0.0. i am writing the driver on 9front, but a while ago i ran it on lab's kernel. it seemed to work OK then.

You will also need a virtio-scsi driver; GCE does not offer virtio-blk. But it should work just fine when both drivers are available. -- vs;

Re: [9fans] Plan 9 image for Google Compute Engine?
is anyone working on this or has done a deep dive? it looks doable. No but it looks intriguing. -Steve
Re: [9fans] Plan 9 image for Google Compute Engine?
is anyone working on this or has done a deep dive? it looks doable. https://developers.google.com/compute/docs/images#providedkernel Cool idea, but it seems to come with some baggage, specifically, requiring python 2.6, sshd and, more importantly (but optionally, it seems)gsutil, gcutil and some odd network settings. It still looks feasible, but not with an out-of-the-box Plan 9 instance. L.
