You may also want to see mount(8) and look for bind from the manual page. Since there is not very much about it, I will just quote it below. From mount(8): Since Linux 2.4.0 it is possible to remount part of the file hierarchy somewhere else. The call is mount --bind olddir newdir ftp.fi.debian.org has the whole debian/ on the same partition but a couple of directories, such as debian-cd/, that were previously on the same partition with the mirror root are now mounted from a new location with the --bind option. /etc/fstab also works with bind option with something like: /newloc/debian-cd /oldloc/debian-cd none bind,noatime,noexec,nodev Using bind should keep all mirroring programs happy since they do not have to get confused when they find a symlink instead of directory. -- Heikki Vatiainen * [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tampere University of Technology * Tampere, Finland
