9front installation

To create an ISO image do the following:

% mkdir $home/iso
% cat $home/bin/rc/b/iso
#!/bin/rc
# -- put root fs in /n/src9
bind /root /n/src9
# -- put git repo there
bind -ac /dist/plan9front /n/src9
# -- build the iso
cd /sys/lib/dist
mk $home/iso/9front.bleed.$objtype.iso
% b/iso
…

You can write the ISO image directly to an USB device:

% cat $home/iso/9front.bleed.$objtype.iso >/dev/sdUxxxxx/data
