There is no central repository of "mounted filesystems" and the architecture doesn't allow to enforce one anyway (as registration of such data would be purely optional). We might add a server for this at some time, or just recurse through all filesystems. However, what works is "df PATH", like "df /". Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
