Hmmm, that's really new behavior-- never used to fail without mount helper. Can you give the exact error message?


Patches to documentation and/or code gladly accepted.

The documentation in the linux kernel says you merely

  mount -t 9p ipaddress /mntpoint

this fails on my system since /sbin/mount tries to execute /sbin/ mount.9p and fails. Am I supposed to have an /sbin/mount.9p? (Anyone know which ubunutu package should have this? If not, where I might find sources? Ironic since Ubuntu came with the 9p kernel module) Or should I be using a different mount program for the purpose?

The linux Documentation/filesystems/9p.txt should probably be updated with more details, either way.
