I did look at those, and even tried to Google for examples, but my reading
of them is that you get to choose which of {header, index, cache, expunge,
squat} you want on your metapartition, but you can only have one shared
metapartition per partition. So I can't do what I want, ie put the squat
files on a different volume to the other files if I also want to use a
metapartition for them.
Am I missing something?
