I want to thank everyone who replied.  It makes sense to me that 1c was used for embedded 68k coprocessors, Blit, etc.  Thanks! -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tf34475f1bb69674a-Mf5c7402508a98c15ab19221c Delivery options:

2021-02-28 Thread rt9f . 3141
The BeagleBoard Org have recently introduced a Linux-capable risc-v based board called "BeagleV".      ref: https://beagleboard.org/beaglev      ref: https://www.tomshardware.com/uk/news/beaglev-riscv-announced The CPU is a  U74 risc-v dual core running at 1.5GHz (roughly equivalent to Cortex A5

The Olimex ESP32­-C3 module has a risc-v core, sure, but it's roughly equivalent to an ARM Cortex-M3.  The HW platforms targeted by Plan 9 and its tools are much more heavy weight.  I don't believe Plan 9 would be a good starting point for any ESP32-C3 development.  If the Olimex guys are lookin

Hello, I'm wondering about the history of the 68000 compiler/tools.  Support for the 68020 makes sense, it had an MMU, but 68000 did not.  And it had some design flaws that prevented it from working correctly with the external MMU, the 68451.  So why does/did Plan 9 have a 68000 compiler?  Did

OK, a bit more digging, statw works with the cwfs installed by the stock image and scripts (not using 666a).  Any pointers on deciphering the info provided would be much appreciated. Sorry for hijacking this thread. -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fan

As as filesystem becomes full, what's the plan9/9front way to report disk utilization?  i.e. the equivalent of 'df'? Thanks, -Shiro -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tc951a224dde6dde5-M218b0c173b5b6f42b8fb8645 Delivery optio
