Well, after
9fs snap
/n/snap
is empty...

Where can I read how to turn the snapshots on?
(Actually, I once read fossil(4) and had the feeling that these simply
do happen and once there is no space some of them are moved to venti
or deleted if there is no venti. With this on mind I then decided not
to use venti during installation. Now I see the snapshots have to be
turned on...)
Thanks anyway
