Mea Culpa - I should have said I was upgrading (from 6.1) not installing.
My point was that for a naive user (such as my M$ windows Brother-in-law)
this behaviour isn't all that desireable. It results in mysterious
behaviour. I suspect that all this would be documented in the booklet which
would accompany the distribution - which all those who use the "expert" mode
(as I did), read cover to cover before installing :-)
Thanks for the info (man 8 supermount) - but there is no such manual page
(well, man doen't see it). I'll check what's happened to it when I get to
the machine again.
