I know this is a strange question, but here goes:
I have three partitions. One is /home. The other two are different versions of openSUSE. I boot one of them (obviously). I then mount the other version as /otheros.
The thing is, I want to access /home as /home from the booted OS (that works) as well as the other mounted OS. I chroot to the other OS mount point when this is needed.
I guess the following works: mount --bind /home /otheros/home see man mount (8) for details about --bind. The same I do for /proc and /dev already in chroots: mount --bind /proc /otheros/proc ... chroot /otheros Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform / openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
