i didn't notice that you are not familiar with the symbolic link solution. actually, it's the simplest way. i should have mentioned it in the first place. $ man ln and you'll have a rough idea about it. let's say you winxp "C:" partition is mounted to "/media/xp" . and the iTunes dir being sth like "c:\document and settings\user\...\iTunes" . to link it to somewhere under \home, you do $ ln -s "/media/xp/document and settings\user\...\iTunes" "$HOME/path/to/your/destination" such links are frequently used to share config files. you can make symlinks between files or dirs. be careful about the trailing slash. it's the same set of rules with mv and cp. there's also a "--bind / --move" option for mount (check out the man page) but symbolic links are totally enough for your case.
