[9fans] venti back anyway

[ron minnich]

And I have a venti score.

I'm running off the CD with the ether set up as 1.1.1.1. Venti is started
and seems to run. I am using the old /dev/sdC0/isect1 partition for
testing flfmt.

If I
flfmt /dev/sdC0/isect1 it seems to go fine.

If I do this:
 flfmt -v <score> -h 1.1.1.1 /dev/sdC0/isect1
I get back three lines of hex numbers, no errors. Are three lines of hex
numbers pretty much the thing to expect?

But if I try to start fossil, well, that goes badly. The first line of
config is this:
fsys main config /dev/sdC0/isect1
and that gets this error:
fsOpen: fileRoot: i/o error

The score I am using, BTW, is derived from both the old fossil partition
that is now dead, and the arena: in other words I looked both places and
seem to have found the same score value.

Anybody seen this?

Thanks again.

ron

yes, those are the scores of the 3 entries in the root.
if you didn'y get any other errors you're ok.

can you mount the archive you have the score for, e.g.

	vacfs -h venti-server vac-file-with-root-score
