Subject: [9fans] How long should it take fossil to dump to venti (1st time around)
Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2010 13:04:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k4v47hvi.fsf@marvin.902northland.adams.home> (raw)

Hi folks:

I've installed Plan 9 on another of my systems and so far so good.
This configuration is an all-in-one fossil+venti system.  Nothing has
been extended beyond the default ISO.

After I installed and rebooted I noticed that the hard drive light
came on and stayed on.  It's been on for several hours thus far.  I
assume that this is fossil being dumped for the first time but I
didn't think it would take this long.

Is there a way for me to peek at the dump process?  I'd like to turn
this machine off at some point but don't want to interrupt it.


Thanks,

Matt
