UGGGHHHH!!! I forgot to turn off HTML mail. Sorry
folks.

Well, I know the subject's not too clear, so let me
try
to explain. (Also, my 'e' key doesn't work too wll.) I
made a union containing three directories, all
read-only like this (not the actual directory names,
but this is for clarity):

mount -t unionfs -o
ro,dirs=/test/ro/ro1:/test/ro/ro2:/test/ro/ro2
union.ro /test/union.ro/rodata

When I try to make another union, as shown below, I
can't see any of the rodata, although the rodata
directory shows up in /test/union.rw and the data in
/test/ro/ro? shows up in /test/union.ro/rodata.

mount -t unionfs -o
dirs=/test/rw=rw:/test/union.ro=ro,delete=whiteout
union.rw /test/union.rw

I, later, wondered about bind mounting the union.ro to
bind.ro and putting that in the union.rw but no data
shows up from the union in the bind mount. For
example,
if I bind mount the union.ro as shown below, I can
still see the data in union.ro but not in bind.ro.

mount -o bind /test/union.ro /test/bind.ro

Am I doing something wrong? Is this just some strange
bug that I happened upon whilst being weird?
