Hmm that is funny, I thought updatefetch would use the same volutil.tk
file as the updatesrv is using, or.... It could be a problem that it's
in /var/vice/vol instead of /vice/vol, there are still a bunch of
hardcoded paths all over the place.

It shouldn't matter much, copy /var/vice/vol/VolumeList to
/var/vice/vol/remote/wotan.list and run `bldvldb.sh'.

This is also not good, probably went wrong because the previous step
failed. Edit /var/vice/vol/VRList so that it looks like this:

coda:root 7F000005       1 1000005 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 E0000100
			    ^^^^^^ this number is missing.

and run `volutil makevrdb /vice/vol/VRList'. After that the rootvolume
should be accessible for the client.
