Now all is making sense. The tricky part will be configuring it at

start an extra fossil. The disk is a large (10TB from memory) WD Elements
connected to one of the USB2 ports. I don't yet start the venti
automatically because i keep remaking it to try different
configurations, but it runs fine.

I remember now: just do 'usb/disk -m /dev' to get the sdUX.Y mounted where you
want.
