[9fans] git port
Someone in the past few days alluded to a git port. I'll be buggered if I can find the message in the list archives. Does this exist? Where?
Re: [9fans] git port
btw, a few days ago I got git working with git:// urls, the Makefile builds everything, the mkfile just the git binary which has all the the stuff embedded a la busybox I did the port, it's nowhere near of being clean, I use it inside a vt window becuase it uses \r as eol. you'll need fgb/openssl and gmake from andrey's contrib if you're going to use the Makefile, otherwise my mkfile just builds the git binary. I'll put a tar on sources later. On Sat, Mar 5, 2011 at 2:49 PM, Lyndon Nerenberg (VE6BBM/VE7TFX) lyn...@orthanc.ca wrote: Someone in the past few days alluded to a git port.

[9fans] rc and pmake
Anyone experienced definining pmake's .SHELL target as rc (the standalone)? Mine keeps exiting at every non-zero return status. And I'm getting tired of reading the pmake manuals (well written as they are). This is on FreeBSD 8.1. -Derek
Re: [9fans] recent plan9.iso on hosted kvm/qemu

Same results observed when I halted and rebooted this VPS this morning. The host reports they are running KVM/qemu on Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04. I'm in the process of setting up a Linux machine so I can try to reproduce/solve the problem locally. -sl Hello, I'm one of the other people trying to get plan 9 on the same VPS host provider. I've gotten past that hang. Some haphazard print statements narrowed the hang down to the e820 init function in memory.c. So to work around, setting either *noe820scan=1 or *norealmode=1 in plan9.ini will allow you to boot in that VPS without the aforementioned hang. What the actual problem is, I don't know. I'm fast approaching the end of my abilities, so you'll have to pick it up from there. I'll know tomorrow how my install goes. I do know where exactly it does hang, but it's my bedtime. I'll have to drawterm into my cpu server and check my notes again to post where exactly the boot hung. Cheers, Jack
Re: [9fans] realemu update
for everyone running realemu, please try with the new version to see if i broke something. Why TARG=qi in the mkfile (I would have guessed 8i, but I could be wrong)? and I think the error: term% mk install cp 8.out $BIN/qi rc: null list in concatenation mk: cp 8.out $BIN/qi : exit status=rc 9367: error comes from not defining BIN? Also, there's usgae: ./8.out [-Dpt] [-s srvname] [-m mountpoint] ;-) but I'll gladly submit a man page if you throw a couple of guidelines in my direction. That said, I haven't tried it yet. I'm a little concerned about aux/vga being altered to expect the emulation in /dev/realmode* and what it may do if it's not there, which probably merely shows how limited my understanding is. I would like to see this type of change find its way into the distribution permanently, I'll certainly help if I can. ++L
