Hi All,

I'm a newcomer. I have just installed cygwin.
I tried to create the /tmp directory as it is said
in the install instruction and the bash answered
mkdir: cannot create directory `/tmp': No such file or directory

I said 'cd /'. It answered:
bash: cd: /: No such file or directory

I tried 'mount C:\cygnus\cygwin-b20 /'. It said:
Warning: / does not exist!
mount failed: Device or resource busy

What could be the problem? Any idea would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Tibor
