In /sys/src/9/boot/local.c^connectlocal we have:
if(bind("#k", "/dev", MAFTER)<0)
I am booting locally off a fossil partition, so I'm pretty
sure this is the right code path. The bind seems to
work (I stuck a test right after that in my local local.c),
but by the time it gets around to starting venti, venti
can't see a file in /dev/fs. When booting finishes, the
file's in #k/fs, but #k isn't mounted anywhere.
Anyone know where/why this is getting lost? I'd like
to boot off a fs(3)-backed venti. I also tried telling
venti to get its arenas directly from #k/fs/arenas, but
that went poorly.
