'ln -s /some/other/dir/goodstuff /stuff'
Then do 'cd /stuff'

How do you think fstab will be read to know to mount some other
partition first, when root (where fstab lives) is not yet mounted?

Can "/etc/rc.conf" be replaced with a symlink? I have done and the file
isn't being read/found. Moving the actual file back to /etc fixed the
problem.
