Setting up a new 9front machine.

Some notes that I'm sure will be handy in the future.

1. Installing with a username other than glenda

1.1. Gefs

user=<USER> inst/start

While the install script gets stuck spamming “mount: mount /n/newfs: user does not exist”, do a little trolling in another Rio window:

% mount -c /srv/gefs.newfs /adm %adm
% echo '2:glenda:glenda:' >>/adm/users
% echo users >>/srv/gefs.newfs.cmd

The install script should proceed as normal. After the installation, rename /usr/glenda to /usr/<USER> and run /sys/lib/newuser.
