I haven't tried this yet, but is there any reason you couldn't put block special files for disk partitions in the 9vx directory and put the arenas, etc there, assuming of course all the permissions were set right?

I'm enough of a geezer that not too much excites me anymore. But today, I had fun reading the USENIX paper and thinking about how to use this. BLS
