I expect some problems with my system in that case because I have a 
mini-system which fits in an 16 mb initrd ramdisc.
This make it possible to get boot-times of 10 seconds after BIOS.  :-)

My video0-dir is somewhere in the ramdisk with less then 1 MB free.
After booting a script is searching and nfs-mounting all my harddiscs 
and creates video1, video2, etc. It looks like this:

/mnt/video0 -> /disc0/video (100 GB free)
/mnt/video1 -> /disc1/video (XXX GB free)
/mnt/video2 -> /disc1/video (YYY GB free)

Right now vdr handle this very fine.


With your change I'll expect the following situation:

/mnt/video  ( 1 MB free)
      |
      +--- video0 (100 GB free)
      +--- video1 (XXX GB free)
      +--- video2 (YYY GB free)


Do you think, that vdr can handle this?  The video-root seams to be full.
