recently the /spim directory for little endian mips was commited to the repository. sysupdate will create this directory under /dist/plan9front as the namespace (and cwfs) prevent it from creating directories in /.
there will be no error message and no harm is done. just for the people who wonder whats going on :) anyway, this can be fixed easily: # mount fs root with create flag mount -c /srv/boot /n/root # try to create the directory mkdir /n/root/spim # the above will likely fail on cwfs as / as permission # 0755 so adm group has no write access... check: # ld -ld /n/root # # give the adm group write access to / # echo allow >> /srv/cwfs.cmd # chmod 0775 /n/root # echo disallow >> /srv/cwfs.cmd # # now try again. alternatively, you can create the # directory on the fs console directly: # echo cfs main >> /srv/cwfs.cmd # echo create /spim adm adm 0775 d >> /srv/cwfs.cmd # copy dircp /dist/plan9front/spim /spim # get rid of the old one rm -r /dist/plan9front/spim trust, but verify. -- cinap
