I also made a test doubling each partition's size (exept for nvram) and I ended up with some error that told me IIRC that for my large disc FAT16 doesn't work out, so I would have to use FAT32. Trying to increment each partition lowly (starting from the default size) doesn't help either -

I don't ask for sympathy but having a Linux that ran on Plan 9 would be a useful tool. I need to have Gimp knocking about or an IMAP client for Gbs of mail. If linuxemu can run Opera, I would imagine you can use it to run Gimp too, with some work. If you want an imap client, you could

Thank you for your help! This worked out... But now there's a new problem: After installing it and rebooting the computer, everything seems normal until the message init: starting /bin/rc. Nothing happens then although the computer does not freeze (keyboard input is shown on the screen).

speaking of which, did Cinap's fixes for the gs segment make it in so we have thread local storage a la linux now? plan 9 provides that portably as the stack segment, and provides some reserved space in it via _privates [see exec(2)]. (it might be helpful to have some conventions for its use.)
