SetUID flag? That's a new one for me.

I thought any directory could work, but I guess not!

I recall something about files being hidden when a directory is mounted, but I’m not clear if they get deleted or just inaccessible.

I’m pretty certain that the SetUID flag isn’t necessary for a directory to be a mount point; that seems off to me.

I feel like we discussed that every existing directory could technically be a mount point, but it might not be the best practice.

I'm feeling good about this one. The key is that mount points don't require any special directory flags or settings - any directory can be used, even if it's not empty. So I'm going with A.

Ah, I remember this topic from the reading. I believe the correct answer is that every existing directory can be used as a mount point, so A is the right choice.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I know mount points have something to do with directories, but I can't remember the exact rules. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm pretty sure the answer is B - only empty directories can be used as mount points. That's the key thing I remember from the lecture.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Is it transportation, since they're reducing the need to move components around? Or is it over-production, since they're only producing what's needed? I'll have to re-read the question and options again.

I'm pretty confident the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency doesn't have a role in privacy policy, so I'm going to rule that one out. Now I just need to figure out which of the other three options is correct.

B) Only empty directories can be used as a mount point. Sounds like a good way to avoid a mount point disaster. Although, I bet there's a sysadmin out there who's tried to mount a full directory just to see what happens. #yolo

C) Directories need to have the SetUID flag set to be used as a mount point. What is this, some kind of secret club for mount points? I'm not feeling very confident about this one.

D) Files within a directory are deleted when the directory is used as a mount point. Whoa, that's intense! I hope that's not the correct answer, I don't want to lose my files!

I thought mount points could be anywhere, that's the whole point of the flexibility. But I guess B makes sense too.
