Hi Everybody,
I installed Plan 9 on a new computer (Erik's 9atoms.iso), it doesnt
recognize the ethernet device (there is no /net/ether0). I wonder if
something can be done. If changing configuration doesnt help, I hope
its similar enough to an already supported device, so a few changes
here and there can make it work.
By the way, I was also wondering, when will Erik's SATA support arrive
in the main distribution?
Anyway, here are the details of the unrecognized device, from Linux:
