Subject: How to read fossil+venti partition without venti
Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2008 21:48:48 -0400

Hello. I'm trying to recover my files from the fossil+venti system I  
have. I changed the configuration to read

	fsys oldfs config /dev/sdC1/fossil
	fsys oldfs open -AWPVr
	srv fossil

then do

	fossil/fossil -f /dev/sdC1/fossil
	mount /srv/fossil /n/oldfs oldfs

but when I try to get to /n/oldfs/active/usr/pietro/lib/profile, venti  
spits out an error talking about "wrong score: not connected to  
venti." Is there a way to get my files back without connecting to  
venti? When it tries to connect to venti, I get an error saying that  
service isn't found.

Thanks.
