I'm following the instructio= ns for compiling in this (http://lsub.org/who/nemo/9.pdf) guide to the pla= n 9 3ed source code, and on pg 24, it says to do exactly that, mk CONF=3D9p= cdisk. I tried mk 'CONF=3Dpcdisk' and it works. Thanks. > But as Federico mentioned, you might not want pcdisk--that's for running with a kfs root, which isn't officially supported any more. If you were looking at the 3e guide, that might explain it. These days, for a terminal, you probably want pcf (pc + fossil). john
