[Q] createdb for existing directory

Typically when I want to place a database on a different partition I
create it then copy all the stuff from the new databases directory(s) to
the new partition followed by a mount. I check things out and then
unmount the partition remove all the stuff in the database directories,
remount, and then update /etc/fstab for the system.

Seems to work but it is a kludgy method to do it. What I'd like to do
is mount the partition before doing a createdb.

Will this work with 7.1? (I'm writing up some instructions that I'd like
to not have to change later.)

TIA,
Rod
