A single fossil may be serving more than one file system. The prompt is to remind you which is the "current" one (ie the one which will be acted on by commands which are not prefixed by "fsys <name>"). The 9pi image has only one fossil partition, which is called main. To see its configuration: fossil/conf /dev/sdM0/fossil > Any > corrections/suggestions or pointers to useful alternative notes on this > would be much appreciated. Have you studied http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/documentation/index.html particularly the "Installation" and "Configuration" sections? Most of it applies to the raspberry pi exactly as for any other Plan 9 platform. > changeuser: can't create user digbyt: '/mnt/keys/digbyt' permission denied > term% > > So I am wondering if there is something I need to start to make my Pi an > authentication server? The "permission denied" occurs because you haven't mounted keyfs(4), and you need to use fossilcons(8) to add your username to group "adm" before you can do that. Have a look at http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Configuring_a_standalone_CPU_server for a more complete picture.
