; styxlisten -A tcp!*!5901 { export '#U*/home/user & }
in the inferno window

We invoke styxlisten something like:

        styxlisten -A tcp!*!564 export '#U'

This exports the entire Inferno root. Styxlisten will start a listener and return, so I don't think you need the "&". 564 is the usual 9p port.

You can export pieces of the inferno root namespace, rather than the whole thing, by appending an (inferno-rooted) path to the command.



and tried to mount it in a Linux window as:

# mount -9p <ip-address-inferno-hosting-box> /mnt -o trans=tcp,port=5901

        mount -t 9p <infernohost> /mnt/n/infernohost

Gets us hooked up from linux to the inferno 9p service started above; we don't feed any options to the mount command for this kind of use.


the mount hangs

I don't think it hangs -- I think you have a missing "'" in your original styxlisten command, and then background it with "&", so you don't see that it hasn't started running.
