Subject: [9fans] usb disks in plan9
Date: Sat, 21 Nov 2009 19:20:43 -1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.BSI.4.64.0911211919060.13404@malasada.lava.net> (raw)

I'm trying to partition a usb thumb drive in plan9:

    % disk/fdisk -baw /dev/sdU4.0/data
    adding part failed: plan9: permission denied
    ?warning: partitions could not be updated in devsd

I get similar issues when trying to use prep.  If I rerun
fdisk or prep it seems to read the previously configured
data back, and other systems (ie. winxp) see the partitions
I edited in plan9, but my /dev/sdU4.0 directory does not
get "plan9" or other partition files (just ctl, data, raw).
What gives?
