Message-ID: <19951003231200.qkPTJzSYzTszz3xqu9EFkMJAOpofqQdnpG4kn4xB_a8@z> (raw)
I'm trying to get an IPX running standalone; so far I have 9ss running on
the IPX (incidently 9ss won't boot on an IPC; anybody fixed that?) getting
the files from u9fs. Before launching into kfs on the local disk I though
I'd try setting up cfs and so define a cache partition for plan9 on the
local disk. Now after I bind '#'w3 /dev, disk/prep sees the local disk on
the IPX, a Sun207 Maxtor -- but it thinks there are 415436 sectors in the
disk. The SunOS format program says 406296. That's about 28 cylinders
(and not an even number of cylinders at that).
I was hoping I could have SunOS and a plan9 cfs partition sharing the
disk, by defining a partition in prep that covered the SunOS disk blocks
and then never referring to that partition inside plan9. But it doesn't
look like SunOS and plan9 are counting blocks the same way. Anyone know
how to reconcile the numbers?
