Since the term "traditionally" was used, I was thinking more along the lines that "traditionally *ix-like systems did this..." as opposed to "Fedora does that...", seeing as Fedora is so young it's a bit strange to use the word "traditionally" with it. ;-) Going back further into the thread. Yes, /mnt *can* be used directly. But, as always, when you *can* do something, doesn't mean that's the only way of doing it, and that it *can* affect what else you're doing with it. *Of* *course* using /mnt directly will usurp anything mounted onto a sub-directory in it, beforehand. But I thought that was as obvious as "it'll hurt if I hit my thumb with a hammer"... ;-) -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
