How do I see the data being hidden without > unmounting the point? You can't. You must unmount. You should be able to do this from single user mode if the file system cannot be unmounted under multiuser mode (eg /usr, /var, etc.). Usually other mount points can be unmounted, but depends on what is running on the system at the time. Unmounting /home would require that you kick all users off for example, unmounting /var/www would require stopping apache, etc. > > Thanks, > > Ryan > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos > > -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software -- Download the Model Railroad System http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Binaries for Linux and MS-Windows heller at deepsoft.com -- http://www.deepsoft.com/ModelRailroadSystem/
