[solved]funionfs

OneEyedPimp · 2009-07-02 19:13:42

Hello All,

I am trying to get a project of mine done on linux. I am trying to use funionfs, the unionfs fs in fuse, to mount two directories together. I can get them mounted with mount just fine using:

mount -t fuse -o dirs=/mnt/test1:/mnt/test2 -o allow_other funionfs#NONE /mnt/test3

Now I am trying to get it to work in fstab. I was originally getting a couple of different errors about it not being recognized and such. Now I am getting

fuse: missing mountpoint

Now I would assume this would be easy, but I cant figure out how to setup the fstab entry for funionfs. Here is my entry:

funionfs                /mnt/test3           fuse    dirs=/mnt/test1:/mnt/test2,allow_other 0 0

Any suggestions?

Shoudn't it be rather something like:

none /mnt/test3 funionfs dirs=/mnt/test1:/mnt/test2,allow_other 0 0

D'oh, yeah that looks right. I will have to wat til Monday test it though, but I will definately post back. Thank you!

Alright, had a chance to test it out and I got this error:

mount: unknown filesystem type 'funionfs'

So I put my thinking cap on and and changed the funionfs to fuse and got this fancy error:

/bin/sh: none: command not found

So I guess my thinking cap needs some more lemons...any ideas? Thank you for any help!

Right… There's no such fstype or rather: project doesn't provide "mount.funionfs" app. Anyway: I should've checked it better, sorry.

I think that this one will do trick:

funionfs#none /mnt/test3 fuse dirs=/mnt/test1:/mnt/test2,allow_other 0 0
