In a computer system having a hierarchical file structure a file system is provided wherein per-process mounting of file systems can be performed. To provide per-process mounting, a temporary directory is created off the current root directory. The file system, starting at the root directory, is then mounted on the temporary directory using an innovative loop-back file system function which results in the file system being duplicated but having the temporary directory as its root directory. A mount can then be performed on the temporary directory without affecting the original file system. A change root directory command is then executed to change the root directory to the temporary directory whereby execution continues on the file system having the temporary directory as its coot.
