mount file system

How can I mount different file systems with
some of the mount points are subdirectory of the oters?
eg. LABEL=/dir1 /users
LABEL=/sub_dir /users/sub_dir

I mount /users/sub_dir, and try to mount /users, get error msg "/users busy"
If I mount /users first, and try to mount /users/sub_dir, get error msg "/users/sub_dir does not exist"

Thanks for any help...

Re: mount file system

Hi Tammy,

You need to create the new directory for the mountpoint - mkdir /users/sub_dir and then mount it.

Rgds,

Re: mount file system

Thanks, I got it resolved. After I mounted /users, I created /users/sub_dir.
Then mount /users/sub_dir.
