[Cooker] supermount vs autofs

[Andrej Borsenkow]

I have tried to convert my supermount to autofs. The result was at least
one disatvantage of autofs - you cannot browse mount points. I mean, in
the case

auto.mater:
/mnt auto.mnt

auto.mnt:

cdrom -fstype=iso9660,... :/dev/cdrom

/mnt/cdrom is not visible unless mounted. It means, that such things as
completion, browsing in Konqueror (or probably any file manager for that
matter) simply do not work - /mnt appears empty.

What is actually needed, is "direct map" (I hope, they are called so in
Solaris), i.e. they way to just say:

/mnt/cdrom -fstype=iso9660,... :/dev/cdrom

Unfortunately, it looks like this is not supported by autofs.

May be, next time I'll look at amd ...
