In the above, /compat is a link to usr/compat. (note the -> symbol) I suspect that you cannot mount on a link, and that mount doesn't follow links. You probably would have to mount on /usr/compat directly or make /compat a real directory and not a link or something. jerry > > > > > BTW I'm running 6.1 (upgraded from an original 5.3 install) > > > > Usually an output of "uname -a" is much more informative here. 6.1 may > > mean release, release + security patches, stable...

I tried it and it didn't work. Irrespective of whether it should begin linproc or linprocfs, /compat is a link to /usr/compat, and /usr isn't mounted at that point.
