Christian,

When the Engine (libevms.so) is built it picks up the location of the
plug-ins from the make.rules which is generated by ./configure.  The
plug-ins are installed in $(prefix)/lib/evms.  Therefore a particular
Engine has the location of the plug-ins "hard coded" within the binary.

My guess is that you built the Engine without specifying a "prefix". The
default for $(prefix) is /usr/local.  The plug-ins went into
/usr/local/lib/evms, and the Engine will look for them there.

What you can do is run "./configure --prefix=/mnt3" and then rebuild the
Engine -- "cd engine/Engine" "make clean all".  The new libevms.so will
then look for the plug-ins in /mnt3/lib/evms.  Copy the libevms.so to your
ramfs and see if it finds the plug-ins in their new location.
