I just used mount /root/UML/a /a/lost+found -t hostfs why should you need an -o ? The mount-point works, and everything inside it looks like it should, and files I put into it appears as they should (I used that directory, since the uml-filesystem is just banged together som files from /bin so I could fix a disk, use /bin/sh as init for instance) An those entries as what likes in /proc/mounts, since I don't have a maintained /etc/mtab file in that filesystem. /etc/mtab is symlinked to /proc/mounts >> mount inside UML: > >> rootfs on / type rootfs (rw) >> /dev/root on / tyoe ext3 (ro) >> none on /dev/ type devfs (rw) >> /dev/ubd/disc1/part1 on /a type ext2 (rw) >> a on /a/lost+found type hostfs (rw) >> noen on poroc type proc (rw,nodiratime) > > How did you mount that folder on /a/lost+found?
