Terminals don't use the nvram, you'll have to boot your system as a cpu
server in order to setup the authentication server. There are more details
about this in the installation guide I wrote (available from the web site
http://www.ecf.toronto.edu/plan9/) but things will probably change a lot
when the next release is out.

Happy Holidays everyone,

trouble with authentication

[Andre]

Hi,

I'm insatlling Plan 9 on two SPARCstation ELC with even 12 MByte Ram
. I've got trouble when I try to start the authentication file
system(keyfs). On terminal it prints out:
	term% auth/wrkey 
	Password: 
	onfirm password:
	auth/wrkey: can't open nvram

I don't (but I believe) that also is the reason for following
effect:
After rebooting plan9 file server Icannot mount the root of the file
server as root of my terminal.

What can I do to solve my problems ???

Regards, Andre
