Digging a little deeper, it seems like plan9port doesn't have any fdisk, prep, or fossil. Is that correct? (And if so, why?) I know that Linux doesn't have any kernel-level support for Plan 9 partitions or the fossil file system. But can't that stuff be done in userspace, too? -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ |Smiley <smi...@icebubble.org> PGP key ID: BC549F8B | |Fingerprint: 9329 DB4A 30F5 6EDA D2BA 3489 DAB7 555A BC54 9F8B| +---------------------------------------------------------------+
