I had different and, I am afraid, more crude aproach regarding the
part before mounting iso. Namely I did "bind / /n/kfs" and edited
replica configuration named X11 by replacing "fn clientmount { 9fs
kfs }" with "fn clientmount { status='' }". I extracted the contents
of X11.iso, edited replica configuration, and, in the end, my pull was
in the form "replica/pull /usr/anton/X11/X11". A hack, the value of
which is learning how the things work.
