> fossil/fossil -f /dev/sdD0/fossil -c 'srv fossil'


Thanks for the advice! It complained about security, and
have yet to learn how it works, but adding the option -A
after 'srv' made it happier. So what I wrote was:

fossil/fossil -f /dev/sdD0/fossil -c 'srv -A fossil'
mount /srv/fossil /n/olddisk

This seemed to work out very fine, but I soon relised that
the content of /n/olddisk now was the filesystem on sdC0,
instead of sdD0 as one might have expected?

fossil/fossil -f /dev/sdD0/fossil -c 'srv fossil'

this should post /srv/fossil as you want. then you can proceed to
mounting as you did with the cd.
