I couldn't agree more about the Atlast writeup. I'm glad for the vast proliferation of Lua, if for no other reason than it has made scriptability a library. I can certainly believe you've never heard of my fork. I actually feel bad because it's still "in beta", being a work in progress. I've been meaning to send a patch to Mr. Walker for the 64-bit issues, but there's always another bug or feature in the way, and I've held off on a "real" (tarballs on a server, documentation) release until I ping him and fix some bugs.
Regarding 9atom, I don't recall any difficulties booting from USB, but it was a while back, and I didn't quite get it installed. I've been running 9front for the most part when I run Plan 9.
