yep, manually step

Next version will generate some directories in postinst

>2) One has to move all files into this directory. I.e.
>    mkdir /var/lib/sheepdog/disk0
>    echo 'DAEMON_ARGS="-p 7000"' > /var/lib/sheepdog/disk0/setup
>    mv /var/lib/sheepdog/* /var/lib/sheepdog/disk0

yep, manually step

>3) simple2farm appears to work fine
>   /usr/lib/sheepdog-tools/simple2farm /var/lib/sheepdog/disk0/obj/

This converts store from simple to farm, manually step

>4)  /usr/lib/sheepdog-tools/vnodes2autoconfig /var/lib/sheepdog/disk0
>(seems to work)

In next v0.4.1 sheep does the work for you.

>5) touch /var/lib/sheepdog/disk0/startup (This file appears to be needed)

Cheers, Jens
