OK. So am I right in thinking that for development, I save files to /tmp like there's no tomorrow since those write's are actually made in RAM, and only save the program to eg. /usr/local/bin once it's debugged? In other words, if I want stuff written to /var to survive a reboot, I must edit /etc/fstab to remove the line for /var, copy files from /var to /dev/hda2 somehow, reboot, and from then on, AstLinux will use hda2 to hold /var? Here's what I have after adding /dev/hda2 as UnionFS: ====== pbx ~ # mount rootfs on / type rootfs (rw) /dev/root on /oldroot type ext2 (rw) /dev/hda1 on /oldroot/cdrom type vfat (ro,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1) /dev/hda2 on /oldroot/mnt/asturw type ext2 (rw,noatime) none on /oldroot/mnt/asturo type tmpfs (ro) none on / type unionfs (rw,dirs=/oldroot/mnt/asturw=rw:/oldroot/mnt/asturo=ro) none on /proc type proc (rw) none on /dev type tmpfs (rw) none on /var type tmpfs (rw) none on /tmp type tmpfs (rw) none on /sys type sysfs (rw) usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw) none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw) none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw) pbx ~ # ====== Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
