Looks like the dig command ignores the search domain in resolv.conf. ; dig cab +short ; nslookup cab .. Name: cab.mteege.de Address: 10.8.47.11 Many thanks Matthias
Re: [9fans] DNS server domain
Ah great! add one to lunix quirks, shouldn't it be the system that resolves names? This is pretty weird :-) Cheers!

Re: [9fans] DNS server domain
every system that uses bind 9 has the same behavior. however bind's Old Standard, nslookup, does not ignore resolv.conf. - erik > Ah great! > add one to lunix quirks, shouldn't it be the system that resolves names?

[9fans] Installing Plan 9 on a ICH9 SATA controller.
Hi, I've tried to install Plan 9 on my new computer and I'm having trouble with the SATA controller. If I have AHCI mode enabled in BIOS: - Booting the install CD only gets to: PBS1...Bad format or I/O error - Booting using a floppy: 9load seems to load fine, and it even detects the SATA controller printing sdiahci: drive 0 in state ready after 0 resets (it does the same for drive 1, wich should be the DVD drive). But it only lists fd0 as valid boot source. Following advice from people in #plan9 I disabled AHCI mode and went for legacy mode: - Install CD booted fine. I could even partition the hard disk. But it can't copy files as it begins throwing lots of I/O errrors while copying files. I tried with DMA enabled and disabled. I switched back to AHCI mode and tried booting the floppy again. Now it shows fd0 and sdE0!9fat as boot devices (9fat partiton is empty, so I can't boot). It seems in AHCI mode it can access hard disk just fine, but it can't access the DVD drive. Both hard disk and DVD drive are connected via SATA to the ICH9 controller. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Armando.

Has you try to put the sata controller in legacy pata or something like? I had the same problem with my Linux and I changed to pata and all works fine. The AHCI mode do not run with me. slds.

Re: [9fans] Installing Plan 9 on a ICH9 SATA controller.
it would be useful if you could send the output of lspci to me offline. there are many models of ich9. not all of them have the same properties. i do have an ich9r controller: 0.31.2: 01.06.01 8086/2922 10 0:1c51 16 1:1c45 16 2:1c49 16 3:1c41 16 4:18e1 32 5:d8d01000 2048 which works with some cavets. hot plugging does not work and if ports are skipped, drives after the skip are not accessable. > If I have AHCI mode enabled in BIOS: > - Booting the install CD only gets to: > PBS1...Bad format or I/O error don't know. pbs uses bios to do i/o. > - Booting using a floppy: > 9load seems to load fine, and it even detects the SATA controller > printing > sdiahci: drive 0 in state ready after 0 resets > (it does the same for drive 1, wich should be the DVD drive). that's normal. > But it only lists fd0 as valid boot source. i'd guess no suitable partition was found. > Following advice from people in #plan9 I disabled AHCI mode and went for > legacy mode: > - Install CD booted fine.

I tried with DMA enabled and disabled. it sounds like you have either a bad drive or a cable problem. i would replace the sata cable first. it is also possible that you are having a problem with power management. but i don't know how to tell if you're using the ide interface. > I switched back to AHCI mode and tried booting the floppy again.
