Yep, that worked, thanks! I'd not heard of the bind option before.
Not quite a single filesystem spread across the discs, but good
enough, as I had two distinct catagories of data on that NAS. Took
nearly 20 hours to copy 230GB of data across from one drive to the
other though ....

I tried creating /system/hddapp/etc/rc.d/S79mount.sh but it didn't
survive a reboot... I thought it might, as that's on /dev/hda1 ...
where's the best place?
Thanks!!
