We have three Windows laptops in our family. I've been using free

Thanks to everyone for all the information and ideas!
At first I was going to try to make Plan 9 my all-purpose system on
this laptop, but for now it looks like I'll just be using it to learn
more about networking and distributed systems. I've tried using
virtual machines in Windows before to run

Well, now there's a Plan 9 user with Atheros 5K.
I suppose I could try to port ath5k myself.
I had some experience many y

Yes, I understood that from the responses to my questions. As soon as
I read them, I gave up the idea of trying to switch to Plan 9. Now
it's more about enriching my knowledge and experience.
Thanks to everyone again for all the information and ideas. I decided
to try running Plan 9 with Qemu in Ubuntu. I can't use kvm because my
processor doesn't support it. I resized my partitions to make room to
install Ubuntu in its own partition. Before that it was running from a
CD image on my XP
I haven't responded yet to all the info and ideas in my earlier thread,
because I've been trying to get Plan 9 working in QEMU.
First, I tried using 9vx. I found these instructions at

That doesn't encourage me to try to use 9vx for what I'm doing right now.
I'll see if I can do any better in QEMU.
Eric and Anthony, thank you.
I'm stepping through the Plan 9 documentation at
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/documentation/index.html. As you
noticed, Anthony, I missed a step in adding a new user:

I'm also planning to look into Inferno and the /9/grid.
Now, in Plan 9/QEMU/Ubuntu, I need to learn how to access my shared fat

Ubuntu windows.

Now I have a list of commands to type every time I boot. I need to learn how
to run them automatically.

fgb is also the name of the directory containing his system, which is what I
meant. I see now that what I installed was actually fgb/contrib.

Maybe because it's faster, and easy to install. It only took a few minutes
to download it, unpack it, and start using it. It's an easy way to get
acquainted with the Plan 9 environment,
I tried webfs and got an error message, so I ran webcookies, and then I was
able to run webfs without an error message. Then I was able to run abaco.
Now I need to learn how to use it. I thought maybe I could just type in a
URL and 2-click "Get," but nothing happened.

My Plan 9 training is temporarily suspended while I learn to use QEMU.
That's funny because I suspended my Slackware training to learn to use Plan
9.
Now I might suspend my QEMU training to try out some other virtualizers.
Also, I got a FreeDOS image to use for my QEMU training, so I may wander o
