loadfossil - populate a fossil filesystem loadfossil fossil root proto fossil.conf Loadfossil formats the partition (or file) fossil as a fossil (4) file system, populates it with files from root using the mkfs (8) prototype file proto and installs the configuration in fossil.conf .

Simply declaring .LR "fsys main config" in fossil.conf takes the device name from .L "fossil -f" and avoids wiring it into the configuration.

Create a standalone fossil root filesystem for a laptop from the local Plan 9 installation. .EX sc=/sys/lib/sysconfig loadfossil /dev/sdC0/fossil /n/boot $sc/proto/stand-usb \e $sc/usb/fossil.conf .TF /srv/fscons.open
