Subject: Question about using amd in "direct" mount mode.

	I am trying to install amd and trying to figure out the best
	mode to use for me.

	I like "direct" mode.  I would like to say "cd /xxxxxx" and
	have "machine:/xxxxxx" mount locally on /xxxxx

	I start amd (as a test) with,

amd /audio /etc/auto.direct -type:=direct



	As a response I get,

an 27 08:26:04 amaterasu amd[11972]/info:  My ip addr is 0xc044a002
Jan 27 08:26:04 amaterasu amd[11973]/info:  file server localhost type local starts up
root amaterasu.aware.com 8:26am-58-/etc->Jan 27 08:26:04 amaterasu amd[11973]/info:  /etc/auto.direct mounted fstype direct on /audio


	Then

root amaterasu.aware.com 8:26am-58-/etc->cd /audio
Jan 27 08:26:14 amaterasu amd[11973]/info:  Flushed /audio; dependent on tycle.aware.com

	The partition shows up twice in the df.  It also makes a
	link to /a/tycle/audio.


	What am I doing wrong?
