Ha! I just think it's awesome to learn new and useful things. I had never heard of bind mounts before but I can think of a ton of uses for them, particularly wrt chrooted build environments. In my chroots, I always mount my home dir (which is on a separate partition) so that I can build things as a normal user. Bind mounts would make it work even if my home dir wasn't on a separate partition. Nice. cheers, Kris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!
