I think he was responding to my hyperbolic statement there. There's no reason not to use symlinks if we can't bind things anyway. Your option 2 just links to the root dir in /usr/local which is just fine provided the permissions are in place and the /usr/local dir is not just a bunch of symlinks to individual files in /tmp/tcloop (actually the case in my tinycore install, not that I care). The only problem with symlinks here wasith your option 1 where cp was making copies of symlinks instead of original files beacuse you used 'cp -HRp' instead of 'cp -LRp'. Nick
