Hello,
I want to set up a small Plan 9 network for the first time. I got two
old pentium computers and i wanted to use one as a fileserver and the
other one as cpu/auth server. After finishing the tutorial
"Configuring a Standalone CPU Server" from the wiki my computer still
boots up using "termrc" instead of "cpurc". I configured the kernel
with
port
int cpuserver = 1;
and installed a boot menu in plan9.ini to choose from the installed
kernels.
Could you please give me a hint why I doesn't start "cpurc"?
Thanks in advance,
Christian

You probably used a non-cpu config file as a template. You will find
upon closer inspection that the difference between a cpu and non-cpu
kernel is not only in "cpuserver=" values -- cpu kernels have the boot
section configured as 'boot cpu args' instead of just 'boot':
so change the boot section in your config from:
boot
il
tcp
to:
boot cpu
il
tcp
Cpu kernel config templates in the current distribution are are
'pccpu' and 'pccpuf'.

Thanks for the hint. I used the pcauth config file as a template. It
has "boot cpu boot #S/sdC0/" in it. My distribution is the "Sources
Snapshot" from the downloads page.
Thanks,
Christian
