Subject: Installation problem on amd64 on secondary disk
Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2020 19:45:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200706174534.GA258@polynum.com> (raw)

Hello,

Since I had a report from somebody trying to install kerTeX on 9front
and was unable to reproduce with my current installation which was an
old one, so I wiped the installation and started a new one.

I ran into problems reaching bootsetup.

The "dossrv" fails and, IIUC, this is (mount /srv/dos...) and there is
no dos server under /srv at least in my installation.

I have almost 428GB of disk dedicated to 9front, with---by default---58
GB for the cache. Since data is copied form the CD, it should be
sufficient?

The installation media is a CDROM with an amd64 iso retrieved today.

The disk is a secondary one, appearing as sdE3 if this matters.

 From what I have looked, the distribution seems to be copied, but
depending on the moment, in another window, some commands are found and
some are not (and unfortunately, ns(1) is not available making
things difficult).

What is the best course? To boot from the CD and inspect without
attempting inst/*? 

Any help will be appreciated.

TIA,
--
