One possibility: if the SD card gets joggled, it may become inaccessible and the kernel won't automatically reinitialise it. I use the 'diskparts' command as an alternative to rebooting. > My $sysname seems to be set to gnot; I couldn't get it to change despite > trying to define sys= in /lib/ndb/local. In a "normal" Plan 9 system, /lib/ndb/local may be on a shared file server used by multiple machines: "local" here means local to your network, not local to one host. To find sysname, the ndb/cs command looks up the host in /lib/ndb/local using its ethernet MAC address - but on the pi zero, there's no ethernet and no hardcoded MAC. An alternative is to add 'sysname=whatever' to the variables in the cmdline.txt file on the SD card. > I know config.txt says that the pi zero is using [pi1]'s entry but, in > practice, my rpi zero wh seems to be using the [pi0] entry The config.txt file is interpreted by the pi firmware, which has been known to change its behaviour from one release to the next. I guess the comment should instead say "Pi Zero W *may* use this entry" > Inside /cfg/gnot/cpustart I added this line: > aux/listen -q -t /rc/bin/service.auth -d /rc/bin/service tcp I think it's more usual to put this in /cfg/$sysname/cpurc, not cpustart. Or uncomment the And you shouldn't need the '-d /rc/bin/service' because those ports will be handled by the aux/listen in /bin/cpurc. > However, when I run $ drawterm -u glenda -c 192.168.86.250 -a > 192.168.86.250, I see this error: > cpu: can't dial: 192.168.86.250: Connection refused > The 'Connection refused' error makes me think that the cpu server is not > listening at all on port 567. I think it's the ncpu port (17010) you need first. Try 'netstat|grep Listen' on the cpu server to confirm what it's listening on. > Any ideas for how to fix this? It can be useful to insert a 'flag x +' command into /bin/cpurc so you can watch the startup script progressing. ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T9bb336bb1166fd70-M9d32faae3d8ec85241b936a0 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
