[9fans] Mount a usb ext2 hd?

[Markus Sonderegger]

Any clues or tips? I've tried:

% usb/disk -l
usb/disk: statusread: usb endpoint stalled

% cat /n/disk/ctl
0: inquiry SAMSUNG HD320KJ              geometry 625142448 512

% disk/fdisk -p /n/disk/0/data
part linux 63 625137345

% ext2srv -f /n/disk/0/data:63 ext2
% ls /srv/ext2
/srv/ext2

% if(! test -e /n/usb) mkdir /n/usb
% mount -c /srv/ext2 /n/usb
mount: mount /n/usb: file does not exist



Regards,
Markus

you need to use partfs to partition /n/disk.
this will give you /dev/sdXX by default.

	disk/partfs /n/disk/0/data
	disk/fdisk -p /dev/sdXX/data>/dev/sdXX/ctl
	if(test -f /dev/sdXX/plan9)
		disk/prep -p /dev/sdXX/plan9>/dev/sdXX/ctl

> % ls /srv/ext2
> /srv/ext2

you would then have
	ext2srv -f /dev/sdXX/$partition

> % if(! test -e /n/usb) mkdir /n/usb
> % mount -c /srv/ext2 /n/usb
> mount: mount /n/usb: file does not exist

i think you mean

	mount -c /srv/ext2 /n/ext2 /dev/sdXX/$partition

Thank you! I works like this:

usb/disk
disk/partfs -m /dev -d sdU0 /n/disk/0/data
disk/fdisk -p /dev/sdU0/data>/dev/sdU0/ctl
blk=`{disk/fdisk -p $disk | awk '/^part linux / {print $3}'}
ext2srv -f /n/disk/0/data:$blk usbdisk
mount -c /srv/usbdisk /n/usb /dev/sdU0/linux

you can omit the -f ... arg on ext2srv if you specify the partition
anyway on mountspec.

are you correcting the /n/usb to /n/ext2, or the lack of a
spec arg? if the later, at least as per the man page, both
work. without the spec arg, ext2srv uses the -f arg as a
default (as does dossrv, which was news to me). if the
former, i agree it's clearer but it shouldn't break things,
no?

IIRC ext2srv doesnt understand the part:offset notation as dossrv
does.  You could make a FAT partition on the stick and put the ext2 as
image file on it.  Then you could left some space left free and use it
also with Windows to exchange some files.  But this depends on what
you want to use the stick for.  Other option would be to make usb/disk
understand partition control messages like sd does...  maybe thats
even the case...  My system here is not that up to date...  Still
using the usbsfs here.
