[TriLUG] OT: mounting a directory on a different volume

[Greg Brown]

It's late and I must be doing something wrong.

I have two disks in my system, one of which contains the home directory 
and one of which contains my /opt directory.

df -h output:
/dev/hda3              7906196   3940416   3564156  53% /
/dev/hda2               248895     10197    225846   5% /boot
/dev/hda4             10449900   2686836   7232116  28% /home
/dev/hdb1             76920416  36622148  36390860  51% /opt

I would like to mount /opt/backups/g-mac on /home/gwbrown1/g-mac so 
that anything created in /home/gwbrown1/g-mac to /opt/backup/g-mac

This seems easy enough yet I seem to be doing something obviously 
wrong.  Any ideas on how to get this to work?

Oh yeah - the machine in question is RH 8.0.

Muchas gracias,

Greg
