Hi,

I am currently reinstalling my plan 9 machine with fossil/venti.

I did a fossil based installation and also setup Venti server. At one
point 'snap -a' also succeeded. When I rebooted the machine, boot process
fails with the message: "boot: /386/init: not connected with venti server=
".

I know I am clealy missing something but not sure what it is. Here are my
questions:

- can venti and fossil be in the same machine?
- where do I specify venti server details which fossil uses?
- does fossil clear the data blocks once it has saved to venti? is venti
needed while booting the system? if so, who starts it? how does it get
started while booting? do i need to specify in any config file?
- any kernel modification is needed?
- I didnt configure the network adapter yet. Is that a problem for bootin=
g?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
