Greetings,
I installed 9Front on an old Dell Inspiron 5100. It seems to run fine.
While installing it, it asked for dial-up numbers. Since the machine has
an ethernet card I just typed in random info to get past the prompts. Now
that it is running, I can't seem to get access to the ethernet

Okay, thanks! It is an ancient machine. Thought it would be a good place
to play with it on. No sense in messing with it further.

here's what works with plan 9
- ancient cards tend to work, esp. ne2000-style which
are used in vms.
- nearly any intel
- realtek 8139/8169
- just a few broadcom
Just for grins, without a network card, how can I mount/read/write to a DOS
formatted USB drive?
Thanks.

the control and data/partition files appear appear
under /dev/sdU*.
in 9front, dos partition gets automounted and appears
as /shr/sdU*. no action needed.
in labs plan9, theres a usbfat: script to read the
partition table and mounts it.

Thanks. I am using 9front on that machine. On /shr I have:
d usb
d usbnet
Under /shr/usb I have:
d sdU6.0
- usbevent
Under /shr/usb/sdU6.0 I have:
- ctl
- data
- raw
Under /dev/sdU6.0 I also have:
- ctl
- data
- raw
I don't know what to do from
looks like theres no dos partition. there might be a problem
reading the drive or there might not be a dos partition there.
run the following command:
disk/fdisk -p /dev/sdU6.0/data
that should print something like:
part dos 31 4030031

Thanks. I freshly formatted the drive with a DOS partition and put some
files on it for testing. It reads fine on another machine. When I issued
your command I got:
part dos 63 31301613
Also, where is a good place to read about formatting, mounting, accessing,
flushing, and unmounting?
thats strange. when you plug in the drive, the nusbrc script
started the usb disk filesystem and run that fdisk command to
register the partitions. for some reason, the partitions
step failed. but when you run it manually later it wored.
the drive might be sensitive to the timing?
can you pull

Greetings,
I've searched the net to find a way to add a new user. The following
command doesn't work:
con -l /srv/fscons
I gather that command is for fossil, and fossil isn't used anymore. I
poked around /srv but couldn't find a substitute. Appreciate any help.

can you pull and replug the drive and see if there are any
error messages on the console?
I don't know

While you're at it; is it 9-Front (as Andrey said above) and 9-Atom?
So, space with Plan 9 and dash with the other two?
both 9Front and 9Atom use U+180E, Mongolian Vowel Separator, to
stand between the digit and the letters. it is a zero-length space

the fdisk command i gave you could read the partition table fine.
(it didnt register them, just print)
the code thats handling the automounting (/shr) should'v discovered
the partitions by running the same command but apparently that didnt
work. (otherwise, the dos partition should'v shown up in
