I have used it for read-only mounts since way back and have not have any problems, including brief periods of high I/O. I'd have reservations allowing unique data on a read-write mount, however I just did a few quick and simple tests of reads and writes on a rw null mount on my 4.8-RC box with no apparent problem. -Andrew- -- _______________________________________________________________________ | -Andrew J.
