This breaks non-special filesystems such as cd9660, msdosfs and ext2fs. It will be easier to fix properly when the Lite2 find is imported (the 4.4Lite find only knows about a few fstypes, not including procfs). I don't really want to re-create the database every week for the cdrom that happens to be mounted, but I want cdrom filenames in the database. gnu locate supports multiple databases (specified in the environment variable LOCATE_PATH IIRC). This allows the cdrom databases to be kept separately and merged when locate is run. Bruce
