Hi.
Can somebody explain me, why following command doesn't work.
"mount --bind /mnt/hda6 /home/user1/my-documents"

Is there any other way to succeed. My target is to have /dev/hda6 in /mnt/hda6 and /home/user1/my-documents

Thanks in advanced
Eky

The mount command in /bin is a link to BusyBox, this may be the problem.
Try using a REAL mount exec. file from Debian or Red Hat, etc.
I don't know if this will fix it, but it's the only thing I can think of.

OK
I found a solution:
(1) mount /dev/hda6 /mnt/hda6
(2) mount -o bind /mnt6/hda6 /home/user1/my-documents

Eky; wouldn't a link in place of: my-documents pointing to: /mnt/hda6 have done the same thing?
