====== Plan 9 Boot Camp ======

[[sdf|SDF]] periodically runs a Plan 9 Boot Camp which is open to anyone with an SDF [[http://sdf.org/?signup|user account]]. These Plan 9 Boot Camps are announced on //<nowiki>mastodon.sdf.org/@SDF</nowiki> (([[social_network|An SDF web based electronic social networking system.]]))//, [[vps_-_9front#getting_involved|plan9-l]], or //bboard (([[bboard|bboard is a threaded multi discussion bulletin board.]]))//. The Plan 9 Boot Camp events are typically seasonal quarterly occurrences that run for 3 months.

In 2009 SDF moved to running 9xen-pae thanks to work done at Sandia/Los Alamos. Since then plan9front has made significant improvements and SDF moved to using plan9front pc64 exclusively in 2020.

In 2021 SDF announced a [[vps_-_9front#sdf_boot_camp_9p_resource|complement]] //amd64 plan9front// [[plan9front_-_plan_9_instance_under_xen#reference|server]] for use __with__ the SDF Plan 9 Boot Camp.
