In fact, it's pretty straightforward.
In the following example, I consider you have a disk sdE0
with Fossil, and you want to add a disk sdE1 with Venti.
Create the Venti partitions:
disk/fdisk -baw /dev/sdE1/data
disk/prep -bw -a^(isect arenas bloom) /dev/sdE1/plan9
Format the Venti file
Hi,
what's the best solution if I want all the wins I open in acme to
automatically have rc as a shell (with -l, so that my lib/profile has
been read too), while still keeping bash as my SHELL when I'm out of
acme, for various reasons.
So far I simply have a script/launcher for acme that exports
why do you want to source lib/profile every time you open a new win?
it's conventional to source it only once, and then rely on inherited
environment variables.
anyway, if you really wanted to do that, you could just
make a script, say rc-l,
#!/bin/rc
exec rc -l $*
and set SHELL=rc-l

Can anybody point me to some recipe which would get me from a point
when I have p9p installed to a point when I can read mail from my

Well, that's a pity nobody can help :(
Is there any reason for that man pages of p9p

I'm not sure I've tried with gmail, I think I did, but a long time ago.
Otherwise it's pretty simple:
cd src/cmd/upas/nfs
mk install

factotum -g 'key=somekey proto=pass service=imap

gmail wrapped the line; there shouldn't be a break between the service

It'll ask your for your username/password. Then start Mail in acme.
mailfs will look for stunnel in your system. In my system, it found
stunnel 4, which it doesn't know how to use. So, I had to point it to

Is it obvious enough from the man pages that this wouldn't be too useful to
have on the Plan 9 wiki?
I'm a big believer in the wiki, but not when it pushes one to avoid reading
the authoritative documentation of the man pages.

rather than continue to live for the next 20 years with
(say) 20- to 30-year old include file structures and library implementations
that became overly complicated (and badly implemented), a better
approach might be to separate the libraries from the much larger distribution
of plan 9-based
fsys main snaptime -s 60 -a 0530 -t 2880
Beware: there is currently a bug in fossil which can cause
it to deadlock under load if ephemerial snapshots are enabled.
This I reccomend you use a configuration more like:
fsys main snaptime -s none -a 0530 -t none

OK, there is a go version that lucho wrote: https://code.google.com/p/govt/
It's very nice code.
There will soon be a googlecode repo (lucho is setting it up now) with
a non-plan9-ports version (vtmm). Find it in googlecode at libvt.
It's also quite nice and much more capable than what I posted

But what about sending mail? I've only ever configured Plan 9 to act

It's pretty much the same as on Plan 9.

Isn't p9p POSIX enough?
It's a matter of laziness; I'd rather port venti to POSIX once rather
than port p9p to many things. There are just enough
platform-dependent bits in p9p to make it enough of an annoyance for
me to go the POSIX route.
