Situation so far:
	booted plan9 from floppy distribution on IDE disk
	mount u9fs file server with CD distribution installed
	bind -b /n/skaro/386/bin /bin
	bind -b /n/skaro/rc/bin /bin
	bind -b /n/skaro/sys /sys
which gives me a system with a reasonably complete set of commands.
(havn't managed to boot direct to the u9fs server, or get other
 than a cga display)

Now when I enter
	cpu% man time
I end up with a continuous stream of:
stack: }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F }F !

troff: Stacksize overflow in n3; line 2, file time

Any ideas on what might couse this? I could not find a way to abort
this. Neither ^c, nor 'kill man|rc' from another terminal would help.

Regards,

P.S. what commands are available for checking on disk free space?
Also, is there any way to enquire about the current name space bindings,
similar to typing 'mount' in Unix?
