This would mean you would not be able to access stuff like /home, which would make it awful hard to access user home directories, unless you create symlink copies in the /compat/linux tree. As long as you create the top-level dir in /compat/linux first, mkdir -p will Do The Right Thing after that. The port seems to install fine on my systems; it doesn't spam any existing files or directories, so I'm not sure why you think linux_base-7 has a problem. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite_at_gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.orgReceived on Fri Oct 22 2004 - 15:37:41 UTC
