[I already asked this on the | unionfs list, but got no hints how to do it, so I think this is | impossible :( ]. And losetup cannot "move" a loop-mounted file (while | mounted) either. And I don't know any other way how to archieve this. | | But umount -l is a good idea, thanks :) | | Michael `---- regards, -mika- -- http://grml.org/ # Linux for texttool-users and sysadmins http://wiki.grml.org/ # share your knowledge http://grml.supersized.org/ # the grml development weblog #grml @ irc.freenode.org # meet us on irc
