I think Jeffery answered it, but I meant that if /home is on /dev/hda5 and /usr is on hda4, then in fstab: mount /dev/hda5 /home mount /dev/hda4 /usr mount --bind /usr/portage /home/ftp/... and not mount --bind /usr/portage /home/ftp/... mount /dev/hda5 /home mount /dev/hda4 /usr It may work either way, but I assume that somehow I need to ensure that the drives are mounted *before* I do the bind or the system isn't going to know where the mount point is. I've never read boot scripts, but I assume that the initial mount -a command does things in the order of the fstab file, but maybe it doesn't make any difference.
