Subject: [9fans] How long should it take fossil to dump to venti (1st time
	around)
Topicbox-Message-UUID: c7c7ef16-ead5-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

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
