No, because other filesystems are mounted against mount points in /, not in /mnt/tmp. You mentioned that /usr/portage is mounted via NFS, so /mnt/tmp/usr/portage should be empty. The bind mount gives a true indication of what is using the space on that filesystem. -- Neil Bothwick Everything else being equal, fat people use more soap.
