Sorry, I hadn't checked back in for a few days.
I confirm the single quotes in CMDLINE.TXT works correctly.
Thank you for the help, everybody.

experiment...@gmail.com: my mail delivery from this list is delayed so forgive
if you have already confirmed it works. This was my cmdline.txt on my pi4 which
worked:
console=0 sysname=pipi service=cpu nvram=/dev/sdU5888f/nvram
bootargs='local!/dev/sdU5888f/fscache -a tcp!*!564'
So as has been
no, the raspberry pi bootloader is a special snowflake, so we need
to use commandline.txt there.
The solution is to quote the arguments in commandline.txt. As Paul
said:
nobootprompt='local!/dev/sdN0/fs -A'
is most likely the way you do that. I don't currently have a
raspberry pi set up
I'm afraid I'm still 36 hours away from being able to test this for real,
but you should be able to, in your command line, just put that argument in
single quotes:

If I understand you correctly, the part of cmdline.txt with
nobootprompt=local!/dev/sdN0/fs -A should be moved to a newly created file
called plan9.ini in
We'll, there's a code walk I should have taken to the next level.

I haven't been able to find anything that implies it's possible to incorporate
a space into a command by any means. If this is the case it's a little
troubling.

When you do rm /srv/gefs* you also need to kill the running gefs or

from what I remember, the commandline.txt format puts all args

The only way I can get my Pi4 to boot from the gefs partition is to delete
everything from /srv/gefs first.
Using -Ac or even just -c doesn't help. It just churns through entries then
after a couple of pages fails with a broken pipe.
This is what I'm faced with every boot. I haven't got a clue

Hi,
I was reading the Arch wiki on 9vx ¹ which said 9vx should/might boot 9atom
and 9front ISO also. So I thought of trying this out and executed the
following command.
9vx -r ../images/9front-4796.018cb441d1b5.iso -u glenda "CWD=#Z`pwd`"

Not yet, if you're willing to be a test subject head over to nix-dev
and we can work through the steps for you and add a document

The PXE bootloader seems to be in /sys/src/nix/w/pxeload.

No. Compile an npxeload from /sys/src/nix/w/pxeload. That should work.

howdy,
i've installed plan9 on a separate partition of my hard drive alongside
debian linux.
i'm not 100% clear on what boot option is best for a setting like this.
i want to boot plan9 using grub.
if that's not doable, can anyone please suggest an alternative way of
doing it.
sasha kapsh
I've played with booting the plan9 kernel on OLPC a little and
simplified the boot process and the kernel changes needed.
Here are the patches and instructions:
http://www.thenewsh.com/~newsham/x/9/olpc/
And a question -- is it possible to use a usb key as a root
filesystem? What's involved?

Yep, I'm running it on my ~4 year old laptop. I'm curious to see how it
would compare on something newer though. I think it would still be I/O
bound, so I'm not sure ho

I have access to a cheap hardware which could be a nice plan9 cpu server, the
