[SOLVED] mount a non-exist dir

[ted_chou12]

Hi, I am trying to mount an unexisted dir:
mount -o bind /usb/sda1/sconf /usr/share/www/sconf
but the dir sconf/ inw usr/share/www doesn't actually exit, i am trying to mount as if there is a folder sconf in the www dir. Is there a actual function for this? because if mount was used, the below code will show:

 mount -o bind /usb/sda1/sconf /usr/share/www/sconf
mount: mounting /usb/sda1/sconf on /usr/share/www/sconf failed: No such file or directory

Thanks,
Ted

You need to create the mointpoint before you can mount to it.

mkdir /usr/share/www/sconf
