Subject: Help needed with PC installation
Date: Wed, 6 Sep 1995 13:35:17 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <19950906173517.HXn11hdUbYpGdHkbMi-Tn_8PiFs4K7HjFUwQiDcWyKY@z> (raw)
After several hours I was able to get the CD-ROM distribution
of Plan9 installed on my 486/66. I have two questions now
concerning running this PC as a standalone Plan9 machine.
1) The documentation refers to the CD-ROM or floppy installations
on a PC as a "complete" Plan9 system. My confusion comes
from the part of the documentation that asks me not to install
a password on my personal account, as the Authentication Server
has not been set up yet. Must I set my Plan9 installation up
to be all three? (file server, cpu server, authentication server)?
2) The CD-ROM installation is missing the /usr/none directory as
pointed out in the documentation. The document proceeds to
instructs the user on how to fix the problem by creating the
/usr/none directory and then copying in the files. This procedure
fails with "permission denied" if I try to create the /usr/none
directory, while logged in as "tor". Do I need to execute
"disk/kfscmd allow" first? or should I just add the "none"
account the same way I added my own account?
Sorry for the newbie questions but I have to start somewhere. :-)
