It is a simple trick: mkdir /tmp/r mount --bind / /tmp/r cd /tmp/r/dev <populate with what is needed ... maybe just /dev/null> umount /tmp/r
The "mount --bind" remounts a directory so it appears twice, but without any submounts in the target directory. So it was exactly what the doctor ordered. -- Barak A.
