Based on the above, can a directory/partition be named /usr/local ?
and /var/mail ? I thought a directory can have only one name (i.e.
/usr -or- /local -or- /var -or- /mail).

Hi Linux-Fan,
Appreciate the help. I have to read-up on the file structure in Linux.
I totally understand the concept in windows. But when you said,
"You can have /var on your "main" partition (which also contains "/")and mount>another
partition in the subdirectory "/var/mail".
Can you give me an example please (in a file tree format) such as below?
/var
/var/mail
Not a direct answer to your question but...
