It would only have to be mounted to /var/cache/portage and this people were done with "migration". Having several directories will make it much harder to make "the portage stuff" be in its own fs. (be it several fs or symlinks ...) -Marc -- 0x35A64134 - 8AAC 5F46 83B4 DB70 8317 3723 296C 6CCA 35A6 4134
