Why is it gone? mount /dev/md1 /tmpmnt mount --bind /tmpmnt/var /var mount --bind /tmpmnt/home /home Is perfectly fine, and /tmpmnt is still alive and mounted. Additionally, you can umount /tmpmnt now, which leaves only /var and /home. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
