9atom.iso.bz2
just a point of clarification. the purpose of 9atom.iso
is to help people get going who are having trouble with
various sata or pata chipsets. i recommend using
the standard cd if it works for you. applying the contrib
packages to an official cd makes more sense as i hope
that this one-off cd can go away in the future.
it has different kernels and 9loads than the distribution.
it also applies the ape strtod fix to awk, and doesn't use
floating point in venti or fossil to avoid rounding errors.
you can think of 9atom.iso as plan9.iso.bz2 +
contrib quanstro/9load-e820 (binaries only)
contrib quanstro/sd (binaries only)
/n/sources/patch/apestrtod (awk binary only)
/n/sources/patch/fossil-sleep-stress
(venti moded, too)
for my own convienence, there are some kernel differences
not covered above. they should be inconsequential.
but the source to that kernel is here
