Hi,
I am getting the above message when I try to boot my fossil/venti
system, after entering the user name. The detailed message is
time...
venti...err 2: decompression gave partial block: 5433/8192
clump=48115 failed to read correctly: d-g-p-b: 5433/8192
fatal /boot/venti error: can't sync server: d-g-p-b: 5433/8192
fossil(#S/...)...warning: connecting to venti: connection refused
version...time...
boot: /386/init: venti i/o error block f1dfa...faaf: no connected to
venti server
panic: boot process died: unknown
panic: boot process died: unknown
dumpstack disabled
cpu0: exiting
Before this situation occured I was trying to boot the system with a
minimal modified 9pcf kernel (one extra quotefmtinstall() call), and
needed some reboots until I got my plan9.ini right. Within the last
step I bootet the system up, did
% 9fat:
% sam /n/9fat/plan9.ini
% unmount /n/9fat
% fshalt
and pressed ^T^T^r. This sequence didn't take longer than one, two
minutes. I realized some slight hard disk access, which seems to be
explained by http://9fans.net/archive/2006/03/487. I could imagine
that this last reboot somehow interrupted a venti activity.
Do you know something I could do at the 9load prompt (or out of the CD
live system) to help venti recover? Perhaps venti could be made forget
about that faulty block?
Thanks in advance,
Michael
