Re: [9fans] Question about rimport

[Steve Simon]

do you have ethernet on your embedded systems?  i did embedded development using plan9 as my desktop for years. being able to mount the embedded system is a great thing. i just compiled u9fs for the embedded system and it just worked. at one point we had a multiplexed terminal and file sharing interface to smaller serial-only embedded systems: i am sure i have the plan9 end of that but the back end would be harder to find. shout if you want more info. -Steve On 30 Jan 2025, at 5:17 pm, Matt Wilbur <wilb...@gmail.com> wrote:  Hello All, I am trying to learn more about Plan 9 by forcing it into my day-to-day work environment. I work on embedded systems that I typically use over a serial connection.  I have a 9front CPU server set up that is connected to a device using a USB Serial device (standard FTDI stuff).  There is a /dev/eia on that server and I can use vt and con when on that machine physically to use the board. I was hoping then to put that server on a network and import it to another computer running 9front. I used the same recipe in adventuresin9's youtube series where he uses rimport to import and bind audio devices.   However, neither connecting to the CPU server with rcpu nor rimport -b '#t' /dev have that particular device present. I'd appreciate any suggestions about what may be going on.  Something to do with permissions / namespaces?  I'll continue to research on my own - but I'm very new to Plan 9 / 9Front.
