I had a need to "enlarge" a file system, and since linux does not have
a lvm (logical volume manager) like aix [yet] I was wondering about multiple
device mounts on the same mount point to "join" different drives to that
mount point. As long as the filesystem is read only, no problems, but what
to do in a write situation.
I wanted to use md to enlarge the partition, but to add a drive, you have to
remake the filesystem, destroying the current data (Humm, theres an idea,
dynamic device adding to md drives!)

I solved my problem by using symlinks, ie
cd /as
ln -s /as2/* .
/dev/sda1 /as
/dev/hdd1 /as2
