It highly depends upon your filesystems or partitions, since,,, - aufs doesn't follow down different filesystem under a branch. When you have two disk partitions, / and /usr, and you specify / as a branch of aufs, you don't see /usr from aufs. - aufs doesn't allow a branch overlapping. It means all the branches cannot be a child of another branch on the same disk partition. What will happen if you try this command? $ cd /differnt/filesystem $ mkdir rw aufs $ sudo mount -t aufs -o br:./rw:/ none ./aufs Junjiro Okajima ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
