Hi. At the moment I'm diving through the depths of the RedHat documentation and got suck on the part describing the File System Hierarchy Standard (FHS).
RedHat writes: "Since /usr can be mounted read-only, /usr can be mounted from the CD-ROM or from another machine via read-only NFS." Some lines below, they write: "For instance, say you have mounted /usr via read-only NFS from a host named jake. If there is a package or program you would like to install, but you are not allowed to write to jake, you should install it under /usr/local. Later perhaps, if you have managed to convince the system administrator of jake to install the program on /usr, you can uninstall it from the /usr/local/ directory." Ha, how to accomplish this task? I mean, 1. how to mount /usr before anything els is up, and 2. how to place a directory /usr/local if THE WHOLE TREE /usr is mounted from a nfs-server? My logic tells me,that it is not possible to mix up locally created directories with those mounted from network. And, my bash tells the same :-) Has anyone any idea how to create such a configuration?
