Re: [9fans] Booting from gefs on RPi without the dance?

experimentech@gmail.com: my mail delivery from this list is delayed so forgive if you have already confirmed it works. This was my cmdline.txt on my pi4 which worked:

console=0 sysname=pipi service=cpu nvram=/dev/sdU5888f/nvram bootargs='local!/dev/sdU5888f/fscache -a tcp!*!564'

So as has been said, the quoting should work.
