So you're trying to mount on a symlink, instead of a directory? I don't
think that's going to work. Why not mount on /wa11, as you describe?

Or does /wa11 only exist because you can't mount on /wa1, and you were
trying to mount on /wa1 when /wa1 was a directory? In which case - it
would help to provide the requested files in the state where the problem
exists :-)

(also, one vs ell is confusing ... I assume you've got the right el^Wone :-)

Cheers,

Richard
