Subject: Standalone SPARC. It works!
Date: Sun,  8 Oct 1995 20:00:56 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19951009000056.T_xHfLtNuigNvBkasI7bp0Wot9xFYo1dZFwRDCo4TNo@z> (raw)

Good news! I got a standalone SPARC system up and running. Here's what
I did to get a Plan9 system on my sd1:

1) Unpack the CD on a UNIX system and install a u9fs server.

2) Boot the SPARC off the u9fs server

3) Create a kfs on sd1 and unpack the whole CD on it.

4) Copy the file /sys/src/9/ss/sscd to /sys/src/9/ss/sssd1

5) Change the line k9660srv.root to kfs.root and change the line boot
   terminal #R6/cd6 to boot terminal #w1/sd1

6) Add sssd1 to the CONFLIST and change CONF=ss to CONF=sssd1 in the
   ss/mkfile

7) Do a make all in /sys/src/9

8) Copy the new image 9sssd1 to your favorite TFTP server (or boot
   from sd3 on your local system)

Voila!
