Re: [9fans] more silly fossil questions

[Andrew <afrayedknot@thefrayedknot.armory.com>]

fwiw I currently do the standalone fossil setup. It seems to work
reasonably well except you are kinda screwed if you mess up the boot
scripts or something. I had to reload from a seperate system with kfs. The
system does cpu/fossil, i have a seperate auth server.

Basically what happens is the files you need to boot up get on the network
and run fossil/venti all get compiled into the kernel, which unfortunatly
makes it fairly big and bulky, and you get to recompile everytime
something gets updated or you want to change some of the initial settings.

I had to go this route because i lacked the drives/space at the time
to do anything else. I will probably swap over to booting onto kfs then
exporting fossil now that i have some extra drives, hopefully things
will be easier that way.
