Ok, my plan9.ini looks like this now:
bootfile=sdC0!9fat!9pccpuf
bootargs=local!#S/sdC0/
bootdisk=local!#S/sdC0/
venti=/dev/sdC0/arenas
...

The server comes up and I see the 'venti' message.  ps ax | grep venti
| wc -l gives 3.  I make a snapshot with
con /srv/fscons
sys main
snap -a

but 'df' shows me that 11% of the write cache is used. I can see the
snapshot after 9fs dump und /n/dump. Isn't the wriet cache cleaned
automaticly?
