Thank you Steve. Your mkventi script and the attached notes are very helpful, and good to hear fossil and venti have been stable for you. I configured p9p venti for a Plan 9 playground on a MacBook yesterday. Works like a charm. Finally I have fossil (served by the 9pccpuf kernel from 9legacy), venti (served by macOS), and 9front (served by fossil) working together. I am hosting the 9front file tree inside fossil. 9front distribution does not have fossil, therefore I came up with this mixture of 9legacy (on the file server) and 9front. Fossil+venti gets me file system snapshots every 15 minutes and daily archival dumps. Life is good. Never lose a file again.

If anyone wants to learn more about this setup, please reach out. I am building a playground so that people new to Plan 9 can get a productive environment up on their laptop quickly. The medium term goal is to increase the population of the Plan 9 community. The long term goal is world domination...

Kim
