I mount a removable drive at a folder in my root drive. I copy files to it. I umount the drive and unplug it. Later, with the removable drive not even plugged in I look at the folder where I mounted it, and there are all the files that I thought I was copying to the removable drive.
John, Are you familiar with the PWD environment variable? At the shell prompt type $ echo PWD and the present working directory will be displayed. Using this after cd'ing to your multiple directories with the same files might provide you with insights into what's happening. HTH, Rich
