run 9660srv to create /srv/9660.  you also may need
to give mount a full path name for python.iso, since the path gets
interpreted relative to the current directory for
9660srv, not your own.

Ok I type
disk/kfscmd

9660srv

	mount /srv/9660 /n/dist /path/to/python.iso (it is at the root of the cd so
do I do /n/dist/python.iso ?)
	/n/dist/python.setup
	replica/pull /n/dist/python
I keeps telling me /n/dist doesn`t exist.
try it from / where I can see the /n/dist directory no luck.

So you've got a CD containing a single file that is python.iso?

I'm assuming your CD reader is /dev/sdD0/data,
the IDE secondary master.  sdC1 is primary slave and
sdD1 is secondary slave.

Run this:

	disk/kfscmd allow
	9660srv
	mount /srv/9660 /n/a /dev/sdD0/data
	9660srv xxx
	mount /srv/xxx /n/dist /n/a/python.iso
	/n/dist/python.setup
	replica/pull /n/dist/python

You need the two 9660srvs because you've got
a CD image as a file on a CD.

If the CD contains these files instead:

	d-rwxrwxr-x M 2793032 sys sys      0 Sep  1 05:24 386
	--r--r--r-- M 2793032 sys sys    117 May  6 17:29 README
	--r-xr-xr-x M 2793032 sys sys    374 May  6 17:29 python
	--rw-rw-r-- M 2793032 sys sys 206221 Sep 10 02:43 python.db
	--rw-rw-r-- M 2793032 sys sys 264479 Sep 10 02:31 python.log
	--rwxrwxr-x M 2793032 sys sys     90 May  6 17:29 python.setup
	d-rwxrwxr-x M 2793032 sys sys      0 Mar 29 17:02 sys

you can skip the first set of 9660srvs, doing this instead:

	disk/kfscmd allow
	9660srv
	mount /srv/9660 /n/dist /dev/sdD0/data
	/n/dist/python.setup
	replica/pull /n/dist/python

RE: [9fans] one more stupid question

[Adrian]

Okay tried it both ways. With the python.iso as a file and expanded on a
single cd. I can mount it, but when I go to run /n/dist/python.setup
I get the error /n/kfs/dist/replica/client/python.db: rc (python.setup)
can`t open:
'/n/kfs/dist' does not exists.
Should I be glenda doing this ? and should I do it from my home directory or
the root /

Thank you
Adrian

Re: [9fans] one more stupid question

[Dan Cross]

You can probably login as whomever you like, as long as you do a
`disk/kfscmd allow' first.  Sounds like a permissioning problem.

[9fans] one more stupid question

[Adrian]

How do you mount a cd ?
I downloaded the python.iso.bz and expanded it and wanted to install
it.
The directions in the distribution don`t seem to work
with mount /srv/9660 /n/dist python.iso
I get an ca`nt open srv/9660 file does not exist.
I appreciate the assistance with the network config, everything
is working just fine now.
I`m try to setup mail, found something on the Wiki
going to see how it works.
 I`m just trying a stand alone system first.
