if bind doesn't work in plan9, you're pretty much screwed.

a reinstall couldn't hurt, but I'm not sure that it'll help either.

just for curiosity, what's in that file?  can you cat it?

I thought bind was a shell built-in?

Of course it's not.  That was a stupid thing to say, Dan.

Okay I looked into this last night & found:

/386/bin/bind was of 0 file size
as was /bin/bind

soooo I did a complete reinstall - guess what?!?  Everything is fine!  I'm
not sure what happened, but chances are I had some sort of media failure
while installing.

Thanks to all who helped!  Now I can start playing with it tonight - can't
wait!

Hi,
how to change the resolution after installing.
i tried to mount 9fat partition.
i tried like this (used simply /alpha just for testing)
mount /srv/dos /alpha /dev/sdC0/9fat

[9fans] bind: exec header invalid

[Chris Lamrock]

Hi all,

When I try to do a bind I get this:

bind: exec header invalid

for instance:

bind -a '#l' /net

gives me the error.

Is it time to reinstall??

Thanks!
