Except that unlike your lofs, bindings are symmetrical. I.e. there is no such thing as "real" mount - they are simply mounts refering to various subtrees of given fs. And mount --bind /foo/bar /baz does *not* render /foo impossible to umount. Not to mention that even on Solaris there's such thing as chroot and you really don't want to open that can of worms... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
