Plan9/9Front Release 8963 (9front.org)

Wishing for a more automated, KEYBOARD driven, and general audience documented install process.

I once tried to setup a Packer template for Plan 9 VM's, but got stuck with all manner of oddities.

For example, there was no option in the install wizard to trigger the restart toward the end of installation, in order to actually boot into the final Plan 9 system.

Would love for the 9front team to publish their own official VM to Vagrant Cloud.


Use fshalt -r in a Rio window to restart


isn't there also aux/reboot? Or is that just symlinked/deprecated?
