However, I feel it's not the way of Plan 9 which seaks most elegant way to solve ones. Then, I asked why we don't use noarchive flag in main filesystem. The other filesystem can be used for such as spaces for database, common to whole the system, and of course, for swap etc. Am I thinkng wrong? Kenji
