What does HackerNews think of inferno-rpi?

This is compilation of Labs “Porting Inferno OS to Raspberry Pi”. We decided to organize it as some set of small labs with very detailed steps of what is done to reach results and make everything easy to reproduce.

Inferno-OS: distributed operating system where everything is a file, with 9P | Apr 2023

I'm disappointed to see that the binaries for the Raspberry Pi aren't available anymore at the bitbucket linked on https://github.com/yshurik/inferno-rpi.

I've run Plan9 in the paste on Raspberry Pi and found it to be a neat experience. Inferno I've only run under Windows, and which seemed kind of pointless.

Your concept looks nice, it reminds me a bit of the Lisperati: https://www.hackster.io/news/the-lisperati1000-is-a-cyberdec...

So, did you consider Lisp or maybe Smalltalk? Plan 9 or Inferno might also be options.

Plan 9 comes in different variants, the "classic" one (with a Raspberry Pi port by Richard Miller) or 9front, an Inferno porting tutorial can be found at https://github.com/yshurik/inferno-rpi

Lisp and Smalltalk can run with or without Linux underneath, e.g. on the Raspberry Pi.

Bare-metal Lisp is available with interim: http://interim-os.com

Finally, bare-metal Smalltalk is available in my crosstalk system: https://github.com/michaelengel/crosstalk

Of course, Lisp and Smalltalk can also run hosted under Linux, e.g. using Squeak (https://squeak.org), Pharo (https://pharo.org) or InterLisp (https://github.com/Interlisp/medley).

Or - a crazy idea - build an emacs-only machine. That would be fun! :)
