[9fans] venti i/o error

[Vester Thacker]

I am installing Plan 9 to an AMD64 machine with a 250GB drive and
chose the fossil+venti option. After a successful installation and
reboot, I modified the fossil.conf file, to allow me
to continue the server configuration, as such:
fsys main open -AWP -V -c 3000

After modifying fossil.conf as mentioned in the wiki, I rebooted the
machine. But during the next bootstrap I received the following:

Plan9

What is causing this to occur? Is there something I need to do
beforehand that would prevent this error from occurring?

Thanks in advance.

I am an idiot.  I see the error. The -V did me in. Thanks to Christoph
Lohmann for pointing it out on #plan9

Hello,

I have reminded of venti/sync crash that happened few days ago.
I think that can make venti i/o error.

Now, I did:
	mv www _www.dead
	mkdir www
and restored www using snapshot

Sorry for my noise.

Hello,

My venti became suddenly weird.

term% pwd
/usr/arisawa/www
term% ls *
ls: doc: 'doc' venti i/o error block 
3d68720550e91952e7474f4baf4c21eb6070c971
ls: etc: 'etc' venti i/o error block 
3d68720550e91952e7474f4baf4c21eb6070c971
term% rm doc etc
rm: doc: 'doc' venti i/o error block 
3d68720550e91952e7474f4baf4c21eb6070c971
rm: etc: 'etc' venti i/o error block 
3d68720550e91952e7474f4baf4c21eb6070c971
term%

I can't figure out what caused the trouble.
snapshot and archive are alive.
I want to remove doc and etc, but I don't know what to do.
