I even tested it on my sheevaplug and other that I haven't yet figured out how to get flash going, it worked without any intervention. Any suggestions on getting rid of the need for a console by supplying #F/flash/flash0 and putting intelligent settings in there? I'd love to get to the point where the sheeva just starts up without human intervention when there are file and auth services for it to use. I'm a little concerned about guessing my way around flash, I'd rather have instructions that are known to work.

Time for that consolidation of fsfs, disksim and other such disk tools into one. In your case, I think fsfs is what you need, but I'd hate to be the one to figure it all out. ++L ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 33+ messages in thread

I've gotten part of the way there. I set up a 9fat on the first partition and I can boot the kernel from u-boot with the 9fat.

I suppose my approach where the file server is on the network isn't great either, although it may be suitable for an auth server. What are the various eventual uses for a plug running P9? I can think of Stealth CPU server/AUTH server ARM development system (where's Go?) Can't think of anything else, but I'm not great on the imagination thing. I'm particularly fragmented now, but soon I'll want to focus on only a few projects, so I'm offering to help any sort of concrete goals. I have only an oldish plug, probably a year old now, but it's dedicated to Plan 9. Mind you, so is the YeeLoong and that doesn't seem to be going anywhere. ++L ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 33+ messages in thread

My openrd (same as a plug) has a 500 GB USB hard drive ($50 from Frys; I was using a flash drive but ventifmt made it die) and I'm working to a hands-off booting. I changed the boot environment variables to default to booting from 9fat on the disk, and that gets me to Plan 9. I don't understand why you think this is not hands-off? Currently things don't work out so well when I boot :-) But I have not touched it for a bit. > Stealth CPU server/AUTH server I don't want to have an outward-facing OSX or Linux.
