Richard has been very forthcoming off-list in trying to get 9legacy working on
my machines. But there are still a few things that aren't quite working, so
let's bring this thread up to speed.
On the X60s, Plan 9 now runs on bare metal but I can't establish an ethernet
connection. Even when I ru

It isn't, but unless *all* 9front users and fans (need not be one
homogenous group) choose to stop using this list, I have no objection
to assisting them or learn from them. I don't

this is not a 9front mailing list

when it was setup there was no 9front

I think there's a little bit of confusion about different stages of booting.
The 9boot program loads the kernel. The original Plan 9 9boot is driven
by configuration variables in a plan9.ini file. Cinap

Thanks for the pointer Thaddeus. I've tried, but it doesn't work at boot prompt
in 9legacy. It only works in parts of the install script.

Hello Yakku -
I couldn't reply to the email you sent me off-list.
The returned error was "User unknown in virtual mailbox table"

The following works on 9front:
Escape to an rc shell by typing !rc at the boot prompt.
Then type ls '#S'

That appears to be a dead end.
To answer your earlier question, you could use dd (or pump(1)) to
copy the usb image to your hard drive, if you're happy to sacrifice

Sorry that doesn't seem to work either. I've tried sdB0, sdB1,
sdC0, sdC1, sdD0, sdD1, sdE0, sdE1 . . . but the issue persists.

Thanks Lucio & Richard.
I've tried to boot via CD again (mind it's from a USB CD drive
in case that makes any difference), but so far no success:

Try sdC0!cdboot!9pcflop.gz

If your hard drive is configured in AHCI mode by the BIOS, it
should be seen as sdE0. If it's in ATA compatibility mode, i
I think I can help you, but right now is a bad moment, maybe nag me
over the weekend in private mail? I am running 9front on a T61 I

problem seems familiar enough that I can at least compare notes with
you.
Lucio.
PS: your message
Hi, I'm trying to install 9legacy on a ThinkPad X60. I'm running 9front on
another machine, but I would like to explore 9legacy (or vanilla Plan 9) more
thoroughly.
I've managed to serve 9legacy from a USB drive, however, any changes are
obviously lost whenever I reboot. I don't receive any in
