Folks:
I am using usb/kb to provide support for my keyboard & mouse which are
plugged into a KVM. They both seem to work well enough. I still have
to use a PS/2 keyboard to input the mount point & user but at least
things start working when rio is available and I can do the "usb/kb"
thing.

You can install from a local fat partition if you put the plan9.iso file
in the partition - don't unpack it, just put the single big file there
and the installer scripts will allow you to chose it as a source for the
full install.
A bigger problem is you have to boot the installer kernel, normally
Usb code does not handle hot plugging.
If you happen to have uhci I can help u off list.

Oddly enough the keyboard seems to work after the switch (most of the
time) but the mouse never does. Use of usb/kb -k and usb/usbmouse
(and successive restarts of usb/usbmouse) seems to do
had a kvm switch once and it sucked even for just ps2. now i find it
rare for the need to access the real keyboard/mouse of a machine.
expecialy in the case of plan9 where you can use drawterm or vnc.
in case you want to use 2 monitors and only switch for keyboard/mouse
input you can use the syne
Booting from a USB flash drive is possible (if the BIOS supports
booting from USB), but a bit tricky. I had to make few small changes
in 9load. I have an image somewhere, if anybody is interested in
trying it I can try to find it.
Thanks,

I keep getting things like this:
cpu% man backup
troff: warning: can't find hyphen.tex; stdin:40
I have probably done somthing silly but running
du -a /n/sources | grep hyphen
felt a bit antisocial.
Anyone any thoughts?
