Someone just asked me offlist:

> if you do `echo /*' or `echo /*s*', do you get `Users'
> there?

The answer is "no"

"echo /*" gives
/LocalApps /LocalLibrary /Net/ /NextAdmin/ /NextApps/ /NextDeveloper  
/NextLibrary/ /bin/ /dev /drives/ /etc /lib/ /lost+found/ /mach /mach_kernel  
/mach_kernel.OS42 /mach_kernel.nonY2K /private/ /tmp /unlabeled/ /usr/

"echo /*s*"
/LocalApps /NextApps/ /drives/ /lost+found/ /usr/

echo "/drives/*" gives
/drives/kickdisk/

'mount' says:

/dev/sd2a on /private/swapdisk type 4.3 (rw,noquota)
/dev/sd1b on /Users type 4.3 (rw,noquota)
/dev/sd3b on /usr/local/Archive type 4.3 (rw,noquota)
/dev/sd1a on / type 4.3 (rw,noquota,noauto)
/dev/sd3a on /usr/local type 4.3 (rw,noquota)
/dev/sd3c on /drives/IBM3 type 4.3 (rw,noquota)

All those are in /etc/mtab (mounted at boot)

These are mounted by hand

/dev/rsd0h on /drives/win95 type vmount-353 (default)
/dev/sd0a on /drives/kickdisk type 4.3 (rw,noquota)
