[9fans] missing venti arenas

[Matthias Teege]

Moin,

last week I described a problem with venti setup. I prepared the
disk and format venti areans and index but after reboot I missing
the areanas and index. It looks like that:

term% disk/prep /dev/sdC1/data
  empty                 0 2          (2 sectors, 1.00 KB)
  arenas0               2 3670018    (3670016 sectors, 1.75 GB)
  arenas1         3670018 7340034    (3670016 sectors, 1.75 GB)
  isect0          7340034 7864322    (524288 sectors, 256.00 MB)
  isect1          7864322 8388608    (524286 sectors, 255.99 MB)
>>> q

fatal venti/fmtarenas error: cant open partition /dev/sdC1/arenas0: cant open partition=/dev/sdC1/arenas0: fd out of range or not open
term%

Thanks for any hint

Don't you see `arenas0' when you do
	lc /dev/sdC1

if that's the case there's a missing
disk/prep -p /dev/sdC1/data >/dev/sdC1/ctl
in your start script.

Hmm, /bin/termrc? It works if I use lib/profile but I think this
is the wrong place.

I try to build a standalone fossil/venti machine and there is
another problem. I setup venti='#S/sdC1/arenas0' in plan9.ini
and run venti/conf -w /dev/sdC1/arenas0 venti.conf but at
reboot I get:

fatal /boot/venti error can't init server ...

If I use data instead of arenas0 the server comes up but missing
/dev/sdC1/isect0. Snap -a can't connect to venti server.

Another hint?

I see. Somehow, IMHO, your sdC0 drive is not being
updated with the partitions contained in your plan9 partition.
Do you have recent 9load and boot(8)? Have you checked?

That would explain why you can use /dev/sdC0/data but not
anything inside /dev/sdC0/plan9
