Subject: pull in 9vx
Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2008 14:09:35 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080702180723.809C21E8C26@holo.morphisms.net> (raw)
If you give 9vx a full Plan 9 distribution, you can use
pull to update it just like any other distribution.
Early copies of 9vx had a /dist/replica/client/plan9.db
but it didn't match all the files I'd deleted to cut the
size of the archive down. In 0.12 I deleted the plan9.db
too, so that pull wouldn't try to run.
If you want to run pull, you should start with a full tree.
I have posted one at http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/~rsc/plan9.tar.bz2
You should be able to run pull successfully if you use
that tree as your root.
You can also start with a stock Plan 9 CD, if you know how
to extract it into your local file system, but you will need
to populate /dist/replica/client appropriately and also
copy /dist/replica/network from a 9vx tree, since I haven't
gotten those changes back into the distribution yet.
