but after a few dozen seconds, it seems that 9vx froze (everything
stopped and I couldn't act on any of the windows nor open a new one).
I killed 9vx and retried (after having checked/fixed fossil from fscons),
and got the same behaviour.

I added devsd and wrote an sd loopback yesterday afternoon.
It worked pretty well except that when I ran fdisk,
/dev/sd00/data disappeared. I was going to debug that
before saying anything.
Here's the fix for the fdisk problem:
/sys/src/cmd/disk/prep/edit.c:503,508 - edit.c:503,509
this must be a quirk of the interaction between
devsd and fdisk. by hand data does disappear:
; lc
9fatctl datanvram plan9 raw
; for(i in 9fat data nvram plan9 data)echo delpart $ictl
; lc
ctl raw
You are allowed to delete the data
The bug is in devsd, though you'll probably have to
add prints to fdisk to find it.
yup. 9vx creates ctl files without a geometry line.
libdisk/disk.c:/^opensd demands it.
also, it would be nice if 9vx devsd created an entry

If you can wait a couple days I'll have some time later in the
week to port this over to OpenBSD.
I'm currently trying to get 9vx work on OpenBSD-4.3 (i386, 750Mhz,
256MB RAM), but each time I want to start 9vx I get the
Does it work to set csremoved=1 in src/9vx/devip.c instead?
I can confirm that this works, with the benefit of using secstore
instead of prompting for my password.

Okay, done. Thanks.

I just pulled the hg and built 9vx from sources.
venti copy has not died yet. :-)

I added devsd and wrote an sd loopback yesterday afternoon.
It worked pretty well except that when I ran fdisk,
/dev/sd00/data disappeared. I was going to debug that
before saying anything.
Here's the fix for the fdisk problem:
/sys/src/cmd/disk/prep/edit.c:503,508 - edit.c:503,509
I assume the fix would be to install an EXC_BAD_ACCESS
handler after kicking off the app event loop. That would
make sure that Carbon never saw it.
But I don't know how to do that.
I don't have a 10.5 mac to see if this is moot with the changes to
CrashReporter.app.
mach/mach.h has
I have not bothered to create a new package,
but there is a new binary available for OS X:
hget -o 9vx.OSX.gz http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/~rsc/9vx.OSX.gz
gunzip 9vx.OSX.gz
chmod +x 9vx.OSX
./9vx.OSX -r your-root
Please try it on 10.5 and see how it works.

This one seems to work fine for me.

Every time the option key is pressed, it generates 0xef8095
in addition to doing its button2 duty. Also, you can't use
option+apple key to escape out of full screen mode. This is
on 10.5.3

Fixed.

That's because it was Ctl-Opt, not Opt-Apple.
This new release works. Thanks! Now to take my fossil/venti off QEMU
and onto OS X.
