Moin,
after a tip of Russ I copy the last lines from termrc to
cpurc and now the box come up in graphics mode. I must
starting rio by hand and I disabled the cron because the
log messages moving the display up but this maybe beginner
problems. Thanks a lot.
One thing confuse me. The CPU Server comes up and give me
a prompt without login or user authentification. I made a
"disk/kfscmd allow" and have all permissions. Will this
change if I have an fileserver installed and booting the
CPU Server via floppy and network? Are there manuals out
there for setup an fileserver?
Bis dann
Matthias

Guten Tag, Herr Teege.
Reading from "Starting up the file server" at
ftp://ftp.dbsystems.com/pub/plan9/install.html helped me
see the order of commands documented elsewhere.
I recommend reading Ken's "The Plan 9 File Server" paper
at http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sys/doc/fs/fs.html -- more
than once.
That refers you to the fsconfig(8) manual page at
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/8/fsconfig
and the more general fs(8) manual page at
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/8/fs
It helps to remember that there is nothing (as far as I know) on the
file server once you've booted. You need to mount a filesystem from it
to populate its /adm/users file, for example. You can create files and
directories from the fileserver's console.
You may want to use a serial console while you work: Set up plan9.ini
with these entries and connect to another system:
console=0 <== COMA on my plan9pc server.
baud=38400
Both video/keyboard and serial input/output work now.
Once you've got something up, on a Plan 9 terminal do:
term% srv il!serverhostname <== connect
term% mkdir /n/.partitionname <== a place to mount the service.
term% mkdir /n/partitionname <== a place to bind it.
term% bind -c /n/.partitionname /n/partitionname
term% cd /n/partitionname
Cat out /bin/9fs for examples.
Viel Gluck!
