I guess fuse lookup will be called if you override it. That's why I suggest it. Additionally, mount.posixovl needs to initialize its root inode, since the root inode is always in cache and lookup for it will not be called. > This is not just a posixovl-problem.

Then I suppose that, - NTFS-3G customizes inode nlink too - NTFS-3G doesn't override lookup either - NTFS-3G doesn't initialize its root inode either > Finally I believe it's perhaps a general problem of all fuse > filesystems, or (the most likely) a bug in fuse, or a bug in aufs. I believe it is a problem of fuse-based fs.
