How aware of the filesystem underneath is fakeroot? Is it limited to tmpfs/UFS/ZFS? For example... If I execute chown(2) from within a fakeroot'd program that is trying to change the ownership of a file on a CD, will fakeroot make it appear as if it worked? Can I make it appear as if I can rename files on a CD? etc. ... the man page gives me no indication of whether or not it respects filesystem properties (which not even root can over ride unless the filesystem is remounted.)
