I asked for help this morning. No response yet. Another question: is
it possible to mount the fileserver disk under kfs and copy /adm/users
to it? I can't make it work.

mkdir /n/scsi
bind -a '#'w0 /dev
mount -c /srv/kfs /n/scsi /dev/sd0partition

results in ../n/scsi: attach -- bad argument

Also is it possible to remove plan9 filesystem from disk, so that it
can be reinstalled from cd-rom?
