I've had similar problems on OS X, so I think it's a problem with
VirtualBox, not Vista. I got past initial configuration and
installation, but the system consistently froze when I tried to
compile a new kernel. I switched to QEMU and haven't had any issues
since.
Aside from switching emulators, all I can suggest is to experiment
with different host options and disable any hardware that's not
absolutely necessary during installation.

Has anyone else tried grabbing the latest Plan9 ISO (from the website)
and installing it via VirtualBox v2.2 ? I got only as far as:
kfs...<caret>
And the whole thing just stalled and hung at that point, so I am
hoping that someone can point me to the wrong vbox settings that I am
using.
I am trying this from a Vista box. Please don't say go to a different
OS and try again. :-)
