If 9660srv doesn't work then I'm no help.. If it's a UDF file system (I think 9660 is ISO) the header should reveal the info and you'll have to go to windows or Linux mount -t udf. The Linux driver is not that big so I guess you could port it to P9. Back in action? I saw some trouble maker called

The gcc flags: -march=armv6 -mfloat-abi=softfp -mfpu=vfp, will let you compile the standard Inferno emu-g on the Raspberry Pi first go. Not all the Linux VT interface ioctls are supported by the video driver so a little work is needed to incorporate the framebuffer device.
