d-rwxrwxr-x M 11 sys sys 0 Glenda glenda:glenda:glenda plan9 wiki says; Start by installing the distribution as though creating a standalone terminal. Reboot the system, and log in as any user that is in group sys. To know how to add a user to group sys see adding a new user<http://cm.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/adding_a_new_user>. The user needs to be part of group sys in order to be able to edit the required system files. In the default installation, the user *glenda* will do. and then you could continue to; edit cpurc, cpurclocal The first step is to edit /rc/bin/cpurc*. To add machine-specific customisations, cd /cfg; mkdir $sysname; dircp example $sysname but i was not able to go through here due to said problem.

But, when i got home this morning, i tried to reproduce the problem at my home plan9 installation and i didn't face the same problem. and i was able to go through the first step. the only difference is; my home installation was from sept. 2009 iso and my installation at work is from april 24 2010 could this be a problem on my installation cd?
