No. This will definitely not help, as they will be covered by mount --bind. You may want to look at the --bind option in `man 8 mount`. Creating /dev/pts and /dev/shm will help (if they don't exists - note the leading /), and creating dev/pts and dev/shm after the bind will have exactly the same effect. What distro are you building from? Do you have the folders /dev/pts and /dev/shm? If not then that suggests that there may need to be mention somewhere of the possibility of having to create those directories manually. ls -ld /dev/pts; ls -ld /dev/shm Alex :-) -- Pippin Computer Monkey to the Pelican www.oxrev.org.uk, www.corpusjcr.org, www.rev.org.uk
