how's it mounted?
it's not. / is a ramdisk. For more details see www.clustermatic.org (all
you US East Coast guys remember the Vege-Matic, right?)
...and we are planning to mount users home directories, etc. using
v9fs. There's an automounter that mounts the filesystems in a private
namespace each time a process is executed on a node. When the process
terminates the filesystems are auto unmounted.
